Hospice Care Supports Patients and Caregivers

Death is a difficult topic for most of us, yet it is an inevitable part of human life. For those diagnosed with terminal or life-limiting diseases, palliative and hospice care helps them navigate their illnesses with comfort. We speak with a caregiver and a hospice nurse to find out how the physical and psychosocial support helps patients and caregivers. as well as with Kasih Hospice Foundation to find out about the role it’s played over 20 years. Find out more about their Seasons of Life festival here.
