Exploring words and busting myths associated with palliative and end of life care. Over the course of 10 podcasts I am delighted to talk with Dani Ayre, we focus on a word a week and challenge commonly held beliefs. Why? Because words matter - you will hear the impact of myths around words and we'll share valuable resources.

In our final episode of this season we talk about words used when someone may be approaching the last days of life.

This episode closes the current season. I'll be back on 4th April with more fabulous guests and Conversations About Advance Care Planning.
