652. Penny Sartori

Penny Sartori became interested in death and dying early in her nursing career after a connection she developed while caring for a dying patient in the ICU. That event motivated Penny to question what happens when we die and this led to Penny undertaking a long-term study to investigate the near-death experiences of patients in ICU.

Penny worked as a nurse for 21 years and currently lectures at the nursing department of Swansea University.
