A TRUE HELP - HOSPICE AND PALLIATIVE CARE

This session will burst the bubbles of misconception about hospice and palliative care. Hospice and palliative care can bring in support- ive services for not only the patient but also for the entire family support system.

You will also be given tools to think about and communicate with your loved ones about what you want during a medical crisis or during your final days.
