What is it like to die in your own home? What does death really look like? And what happens immediately after someone dies?

In this second episode of our Treetops Hospice podcast, we're talking to Tammy and Jade, two of our Treetops Healthcare Assistants.

Tammy and Jade are part of a team of Hospice at Home nurses who provide end-of-life care for patients in their own homes.

They talk about the differences between dying at home and in a hospital, their own experiences of caring for someone in their last few days of life, and what a ‘good death’ looks like.

What’s it like to be told you have cancer?
