I’m a geriatric and hospice nurse. I don’t do kids because I can’t be emotionally available. I can say unequivocally it is the most fulfilling rewarding area of nursing. Dying is a part of living and being able to walk patients home is a privilege
Thank you Teresa
I have lung cancer stage 4 ,,how does the doctors know your going to die .. is it your blood pressure? Is it your blood? What is it that tells them that you’re gonna die because these people on the video don’t look like they’re dying they just look like through regular people
@@godschild3640hi lovely, hope this may help - so with palliative care it tends to be patients that have a life limiting illness where treatment is no longer having any effect (which can be picked up through scans / blood results) and therefor a decision is often been made to either stop active treatment and instead we are priotising comfort and symptom management to make the last moments of life comfortable.
There are quite a few signs to indicate when a patient is approaching end of life such as increasingly fatigued, extremities becoming cold or hot, increased symptoms whether this be breathlessness, pain and also a reduction to appetite these are all common signs that the body is starting to weaken if you will xxx xxx
Hopefully treatment is going well for you sending you lots of love❤
Does the gym trainer said "hej på dej" (hello you) in swedish!? to Reece, the young guy with MS
@@godschild3640your blood values, saturation, organ function etc
I'm a fairly good guy, but then I watch stuff like this and realise these people are on another level. Not just the volunteers and staff but the ill people too. Their characters are so amazing.
I’m not afraid of dying. I’m afraid of being in pain dying.
That's the hospice main concern. They are there to manage the pain. It worked for my sister-in-law years ago. She died of colon cancer.
important to accept pray to Jesus so you will go to Heaven. John 3:3
Yep I'm not afraid of dying. I'm afraid of how I'm going to die. No, pain please 😭🙏❤️✝️🌈🐛🦋
Then don't unlive in either America or Holland. They are terrible about pain management in hospitals in either country. In Nederlands, they act like you are a s*ssy if you even request an aspirin; in America they assume you are a drug addict. Ridiculous.
Im chronically ill with many life limiting illnesses ..
Been 15 years now...
Id move to a hospice in a heart beat if i could.
But i know you need to be totally dependant on others..
..and almost at end of life , before you go.
If i had money , i would pay for care like this.
Most patients looks so happy, loved and comfortable.
I guess one day, my time will come.
Cant wait.
What a lovely way to go,...
Pampered to bits !
Painfree and fully supported by staff.
Condolences to all those who finally sail the silver ship
...to the next wotld.
Bless you all.
💚💚💚💚💚
You can go to hospice even without being close to the end. Check with your local providers if they have space. All the best to you.
One of the most fulfilling things I've done was spend five years of my life volunteering to take my dog to see hospice patients. My dog is retired now but I hope to resume that work with another dog in the future
I did that for a couple of years until my dog died of cancer himself. We visited nursing homes, schools, hospitals, went to funerals, all kinds of things. The dogs really made a difference to people.
American here, and my dad had hospice in our home and they were beyond awesome. We were blessed that he was able to pass at home surrounded by his family. Those hospice people are angels on earth💕💕
My dad died last year.. He had hospices for only 2 days before he passed away.. My father was in so much pain.. He was unable to take pain meds.. He was allergic.. Nor could he ha dle klonopin.. Xanax, or Ativan however you spell it.. He could handle it... So he suffered clear up to his last breath.. He would throw up and it brought a little relief.. But I won't ever forget watching him throw up biles of black cooffee like substances.. He had liver failure he was ready to get a new liver but discovered he had stage 4 liver cancer and stage 4 pancreatic cancer.. The doctor started him on chemo.. He did one dose of chemo and that basically killed him.. They had to stop the chemo because his body was not responding well.. They sent him home at the beginning of Feb 2022..i got a call saying I need to come home... It took me about 9 hours but I finally got there on Feb. 8,2022...my dad raised his head and looked at me.. Then fell back to sleep.. I walked out of the house.. I wasn't prepared to see him that way.. He had no muscle mass.. He was yellow looking.. None stop moaning because of the pain.. I cried for about 15 min and then I collected myself and went in the house to comfort my amazing step-mom.. She loves him so much.. They were soul mates.. I got there on the 8th and my father passed away a day before super bowl on Feb 12, 2022 at 8:52pm
He was always my hero.. As he was dying I made sure he knew that I was there.. I did talk to him and I told him to let go.. That I understand and that well all take care of mom... But my father would not die UNTILL he saw my stepbrother.. I looked at my brother and said pops is trying to say something to you.. My brother said what's up pop.. And dad looked at mom then back to my step brother.. I said he wants you to promise him that mom will always be cared for and for you to take care of her he isn't going to die UNTILL you make that promise.. I said you know how stubborn he is.. Brian my brother said pops I've told you before mom will be cared for.. I said he wants to hear it again.. Brian looked at our dad.. And held his hand and said pops.. I love you and I thank you for being there for me when my own father wouldn't be.. Thank you for ALWAYS taking care of us and NEVER treating any of us differently.. Man to man.. I'm looking you dad in the eyes.. Mom will be OK.. I will take care of her.. Me, and the kids will make sure she will be OK.. I promise you that.. I swear to you that I will always be there.. (my brother lives 2 houses down the road..) as Brian was talking to him mom had her head on his chest Brian had one hand.. I was on the other side with my head on his shoulder and my other brother was holding his other hand.. Brian made that promise (we all were crying) as soon as he made the promise I lifted my head just a bit.. That's when black thick substance came out of every hole in his body.. Blood coming out of his eyes, ears, mouth, nose, port, blood went everywhere.. Just like that he was gone.. As soon as Brian made that promise he passed away...
I won't ever forget it.. And I am in the health care worker.. Some patients are terminally and others are fine but die without having symptoms of any kind.. It's weird..
I do believe ppl when they tell you when they are going to die..
My dad passed in a hospice in Atlanta. Was my first experience with one. Those kind people were invaluable. I gave them a large donation as they were non-profit. That hospice made such a difference and it had a profound effect on me.
Hospice workers are actual angels on the earth. Their work is so important.
These people are literal angels on earth. I know firsthand, and I am so grateful. We could not have made it through my mother-in-law’s passing without them.
They are angry but there so scared of anything socialised especially healthcare they think they will have to wait weeks to see a dr care will be rationed or denied i live in memphis but im from the uk i like the nhs but theres no denying you have to wait longer in the us ive never had to wait pick up the phone seen same day most times since obamacare i pay $90 a month its based on income this yr im selling a house so my income went up my health insurance did to to $763 amonth next yr it will go back down since the affordable care act (obamacare)things are much better at $90 a month im actually paying about the same as id pay in uk some of my prescriptions cost nothing for a 3 month supply some cost $80 and i pay $20 to see a dr if i have a million dollar surgury the most i will have to pay is $3200
No, they are paid professionals....Yes they are great wonderful and amazing but they are as human as the women at the grocery store register. Some are good some are there for the job.....Human Beings in the end....Not Angels on Earth lol are you serious, lol angels on Earth
Totally agree
@@deniseblackburn33 Thank you. If you have experienced their kindness while in your most painful moments, you understand.
I am a RN to that has worked in oncology, palliative care for over 20 years. By the end the only things that count are kindness, compassion and the simple fact that you are there. Done be fooled though many many of us that work or volunteer in hospice or palliative care have PTSD. You think you are strong and can handle the pain and suffering but you can’t. At some point your brain gives you a overload warning and if you don’t take actions immediately you will develop, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, burnout .. While the work we do can’t be measured please all of you remember to take care of yourselves. Don’t stay in this care for years at a time, get psychological help, counseling. Talk to a professional, find ways to release your experiences, the pictures that you can’t get out of your head. We all are human and humans aren’t made out to watch one person die after another. It does something to your soul and it’s not good. Love you all!
well spoken or if your a too soft person as myself and want to help, but cant, dont! I tried but home everyday feeling so bad for everyone a person cant live like that, be kind to yourself move to another job.
I love your message. Palliative care is interesting. Want to learn more.
My father volunteered at a hospice as a hospice pastor. he took time out when life and hospice got too stressful.
I wanted to volunteer service at hospice. My father had died a few months before I tried to. Bereavement Counseling was given. They said to wait. Unfortunately lockdown happened and they weren't allowing anyone in.
I worked in many aspects of health care in my youth but I could not do hospice. I’d be crying all the time. So I doff my cap at those of you who are much stronger and bring comfort and compassion to people at the ends of their lives.
I used to volunteer in st Roccos hospice in the uk, made drinks for patients and visitors, served food, helped patients with meals, cleaned, it was special and rewarding
My grandma passed away last November 28 due to stage 4 breast cancer and multiple organ failure. Its really hard for us to transition from medical to hospice care but they assured us she passed away pain free and peacefully. Up until now I cant accept it and still crying this is our first holiday without her 😢. I would like to thank the hospice staffs who assisted her even though after 2 days she passed away. By the way she passed away at the age of 100 😢.
My deepest condolences and prayers to you all
As an individual with several life limiting illnesses, I can personally attest to the value and importance of palliative care, otherwise known as symptom management. I recieve palliative care on an outpatient basis, and plan on continuing to work on maintaining my best quality of life for as long as possible. I am very thankful to my primary care team who are very helpful.
Best wishes to you
God bless you and cure your ailements
Lots of love your way 🥰
@Kelle dunbass. God does exist sweetheart, how about...
Are you upset with God because the way you look?
I recently lost my fiancee and he spent a week on hospice. Unfortunately it was in the hospital but they were absolutely amazing. This is amazing!! I am so respectful and in awe of these people. At 35 years old and after my experience I am actually now truly feeling a calling to go back to school and become a hospice nurse. Having that time with my fiancee helped me, watching these videos helps me. It brings me comfort. Everyone including his mother and sister essentially left me to deal with everything. They never saw him in ICU, Hospice and he was cremated as they couldnt bear to see him. His elderly grandmothers came to see him but i was the one who was by his side 24/7 for 14 days. I never thought i could handle something like that. It makes me want to go on and help others through what I have been through.
I’m a hospice nurse and a death doula. We need this in the USA.
@Cindy Harris, what a wonderful way to look after people. I am in the process of completing my Certificate as a death Doula in Australia. I hope that finally the USA gets its act together to offer such services. G-d Bless you Cindy.❤️❤️❤️
I wish we had this South Africa
It takes a special person to work in the Hospice environment...i could not do it because i would be dwelling 24/7 on my own mortality and emotionally could not take it.
God bless Hospice and all areas of hospice. The team that helped my daddy and his family at the end were true angels. It was a horrific time made better by this group!!❤
Hi. I worked with the HSE (same as the NHS) for nearly 30yrs. My favourite was End Of Life. I'm Irish. I lived in Tentaerden Kent. I volunteered with Hospice of the Weald. I loved it but unfortunately I couldn't afford the high rent so I came back to Ireland. You all do fab work in the Hospice .
Wow small world! I’m from Battle East Sussex, Tenterden is no more than 30mins from me x
@@emmaonthefarm1085 Thats for sure. I moved back to Ireland. I miss Kent. How are you getting on.
This job isn't for everyone. I don't think I could do something like this. Major props to the people who do this. You are true heroes.

Does anyone remember Emily Hayward and her deep love of Nandos? She was a British TH-camr who was diagnosed with terminal melanoma and shared her cancer journey until her death. She talked about Nandos in almost every vlog and one day they sent her a package to her PO box that she included in her description and it was a card that gave her unlimited free meals forever and used it pretty much everyday until she died. To give her credit the food did look amazing.
I still miss the lovely , courageous Emily 😢
Like most, if not all, European countries our healthcare is paid through our taxes.
So, yes, we all contribute to "free" healthcare.
It means we can have free hospices, free hospitals and free treatments ..
I can't remember that it was not like that being in my early sixties.
I can't imagine what it would be like to deal with hospital bills and at the same time battle some disease ....
I do hope Rhys has been able to stay well and gets all the support he needs living with MS.
Unfortunately he passed away around 2021, very sad news. Such a nice guy!

I was a nurse in hospice for 4 yrs they were the best years of my nursing career…now have different job but planning to return to hospice once I” retire” sadly not well paid here in Ontario not sure why such important work
wonderful programme . I am sure that programmes like this will surely put peoples minds at rest when they see the word Hospice. I think that David who works in the charity shop should be up on the wards in the Hospice as he has such an amazing personality and could bring joy and laughter to many of the patients. His gift is wasted in the backroom of the Charity shop. Well done to everyone you are all stars in your own right. May God Bless You All. ❤️❤️❤️
What a great place to volunteer, much love to for their dedication and commitment.
🌸 What a excellent program,not only for the patient but for the families too..Honestly I have never heard of such a program in the States..I know we have hospice here but I’ve never heard of them being so involved with the welfare of the families..God Bless
Oh they are, they are awesome. My dad's nurse would just stop by on her days off to chat with my dad, sometimes she'd stop and get him a milkshake, he loved her. She came to his funeral and cried along with us.
People who do this work are angels but its not for everyone. It can and will eventually wound your own soul. Try volunteer for a day before investing your life in this to make sure you can do it. Bless all who do this work.
Such a nice guy in that charity shop . Well done
12:15 ? He's up his own rear
you guys are ange;s. o refused to put my wife in hospice here in the usa. because hospice does mean death, i would feel ok putting herlife inyour guys hands so compassionate. God bless. luckily o was able to keep my wife at home ntil the day of her passing, her heart stopped and she was taken o the er.
This really touched my soul, to the very core. What beautiful humans beings we can be when we just love .😢😊❤
Such wonderful commendable folks to volunteer. A fantastic place. I hope I can find a hospice as great and loving in USA.
I am so blessed my husband was at home with me on Hospice.. ❤️
When my brother was dying 1987-88 my mom didn’t like hospice 😢 my sisters and I didn’t know they existed😢 in 2014 I was working as a pharmacy tech and I was making Comfort Kits for the hospice in our area ( USA ) I cried every time I made one 😢 you see my mother failed to tell my sisters and I what my brothers death was going to look like and sound like it was very traumatic to say the least and he suffered horribly 😢 I was 25 my brother was 23 my other two sisters were 24 & 21. So I called my mom back in 2014 and said I wish we’d had hospice back then 😔 my mom said “ oh they did “ I said I wished we had known how things were going to go ……she said “ dad and I knew” when I asked her why she didn’t tell my sisters and what to expect she said” we didn’t want to scare you“😮 I’m still so angry with her 😡 WE WITNESS EVERY BIT OF TORTURE ❤
I can't believe the horror you have faced. I wish you peace.
Sorry to hear this
What a beautiful place and amazing souls that work and volunteer there. I wish many more years of success for Eleanor hospice❤😊
I’ve been diagnosed with MS… I’m good now but I hope that I am allowed to choose to pass with dignity at my choice of time in good hands..
My family has used Hospice twice. Both times they were angels sent to our family member and us. I am in the US.
What an amazing team of ppl and beautiful environment for everyone. So much love and commitment. Thank u to everyone for what u do 💕
This was so beautifully done!
Feel so bad for him how awful to get MS so young. IT is heartbreaking.
God bless these people. I couldn't do this- I would be crying non-stop.
It doesn't come without tears but u make beautiful relationships with clients and families
Happy to see the joy they give to the patients
Everyone here at this center are awesome people! You are so appreciated ❤
@leylag1466 your message is so important for people thinking of working either in hospice, on palliative care ward or in community. Think it’s very important that people realise that some images will never leave them & suddenly out way the good times. Obviously there’s nothing wrong if people can’t actually do this type of work, voluntary or paid, there’s something else they will excel at. So thank you for all you’ve done for anyone you’ve cared for that’s made their life happier & more enjoyable.
To get those two together is a wonderful thing .
I was confused; was he admitted into the hospice, or is he going back to the nursing home?
Thanks for your hospitality.. You go Hospice💞
I'm a retired nurse and have worked for decades in every unit and area. My patients could be babies, children, teens and the elderly. Our healthcare system here in America is pathetic and falls short in my opinion. The UK system seems much more advanced.
I'm a retired RN from Britain, I'd have to say the US has the best doctors and surgeons in the world and the most advanced medicine but it has one of the worst healthcare systems. My friend from Oklahoma was recently charged $130 by a hospital for three 75mg aspirin tablets as part of treatment for a suspected MI, there can be no justification for that.
The Healthcare system here in the U.S. is all about the money. More and more, medicine is becoming a business. Insurance companies in general will only pay for 4 days in-patient and then out you go. My husband had end stage liver disease and they were fixing to discharge him at day 4 and I knew something was wrong. I got into a fight with the M.D. who was discharging him and she basically shrugged her shoulders and walked off. I got him dressed and as we were on the elevator I yelled out "I am taking him where he can get real care." His nurse ran after us and just as the doors were closing she yelled thru them a final message to me "I agree with you." I packed him into the car and drove him an hour to Westchester Medical Center, N.Y. They were not only a good hospital but a teaching hospital. He also had his liver specialist there. He had doctors, residents and interns crawling all over him.
The result? Acute pancreatitis.
I was in nursing school at the time. I graduated cum laude a month later at the age of 57. No one would ever hire me - I later found out because of my age. So now, I take whatever crap job is available (there are plenty of those) My husband died about a year after that incident. At that point I was working as a pathology transcriber and it was fortunate for both of us that he had the good sense to die on my day off. They forced me to come to work the next day and told me they expected 110% from me. I was atill in shock. There was no empathy whatsoever.
This is the health system we have in America.
I hear all the time of docs committing suicide. This type of atmosphere is not what they signed up for. And many wish they had never gone to med school.
I also live in the US our health care system is broken .Try to get a specialist that your doctor referred you to but they can't see you till March of 2023 I could be dead by then. 🤔🥺
Marilyn B. The National Health Service in the UK is on its knees, it’s in a dreadful state.
All I can say is YES!!!!! And thanks for being a nurse. Unsung heroes.❤
I wish we had programs like this in the US. Why don’t we? I would volunteer!
I work at an inpatient hospice facility and we love our volunteers. There are some but not many
Of course hospice facilities exist like this in the US. There are volunteers as well, but most of the people you see here are healthcare professionals. I’m not sure of the confusion, but do a Google search. Hospitals have volunteers as well.
This is so beautiful. God is great. There is more to life than we know or can see.
You guys are all awesome. God bless you for what you do. 💜💜
As a cna I wish we would have had a supportive Environment because I've had over 15 patients die in a span of 5 months and most I was holding there hand or they where laying in my arms
The perfect attitude....every day LIVE.... to the fullest possible ! We/You have that right !❤️
David is hilarious. I could chat with him all day 😂
Im 48 and was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Im scared that I wont get help with my pain at the end. Thats my biggest fear
First, I’m so so sorry you’re sick. And second, I pray you’ll get the comfort you deserve and want. A warm hug to you 💕
@@thara21 thank you deae❤❤❤❤❤
How are you doing now honey?💕💕💕💕💕💕
John 14:27 - God provides peace
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
Sometimes an unexpected pain or illness may frighten you. Accept God’s gift of peace, and let it create a calm spirit within you.
Bless you…I’m terrified of my final days but know good is on the other side.😢
we have lollipops here as well, wow amazing cant wait to go, look forward to my lollipop,as the nurse says gives me peace of mind,but what flavour.
God love all of you.
Such dedication
I started working with hospice 44 years ago in the Tucson, Arizona, United States. It's hard to see the staff so pressed for time now compared to the time and focus (even though I know they are giving it their best) we were able to provide back then when hospice was just getting started in the US. So much about the money, efficiency, so many patients to see with little time and stretched staff and costs now and often a few days or few hours in before death in US. I admire those paid and volunteer staff I know are doing their best to offer quality care at such a cost to themselves. Thank you for all you do.
Ooo

You nurses,Drs n care givers are so great. You take care of people nicely.
Healthcare in the US is also insanely expensive. However, we probably don't have ANYTHING like this here either. What a blessing. People here are too selfish and greedy.
They looked after my dad when he was ill till he died, they were absolutely fab , just wish they would get funding from the government' they deserve it .
Respect for everybody who works there🥰❤💜💙
There isn't a Hospice store anywhere around where I live
It would be great to have a store like that to help the Hospice patients
PEOPLE in hospice are so nice,caring, I'm very sorry for the family's who loss loved ones
Good job everone❤
Whew y'all are incredible. In the states there are levels to end of life. It's a little more organized and laid back here in the states
Hello, I use to be a private caregiver. now, my health has deteriorated. I'm 58. ill be 59 in November. just wondering if there are any Elenor shops around the holy corner area? thank you and thanks for all you do.
Do wish they would not say untrained. I worked at a kids hospice. We are ALL trained. In different ways.
We have this in the Netherlands also.
Angels on earth.
This breaks my heart..😞😞♥️♥️
Here in America, our hospice services have been cut to the bone by Medicare and insurance companies. It's cruel really. Many patients will die alone and in pain!!!!
My husband practiced medicine in US for almost 50 years. We have declined in medical care in the last 10-15 years. The people at top don't care about quality medical expertise...they just want woke idiots to practice. The hell with the patients.
That’s because America only cares about Money insurance there so fake they couldn’t care less if your dying unless it’s there own family , I also noticed in the hospital when I was there 7 years ago there’s no compassion from anyone the nurse’s doctors don’t really talk to you they are just there for a pay check
I disagree. This in inaccurate .
The hospices vary everywhere. My Mum in law had quite a good one in Norwich, Dad was in an awful one in Yorkshire.
Oh Charlotte 😪.
@@deniselancaster6888 just telling the truth. Hospice is so very important it’s mean to mislead people and it’s why I said something.
@@MTknitter22 what was wrong with the Yorkshire one?
Hospice care providers are great!
reece, good lord, what a beautiful man. does anyone know what happened to him since?
I’m afraid poor Reece died about 3 years after this documentary (2021)
I don't want to diminish what hospice does today, because my 2 stories dealing with hospice for my 41 year old brother goes back to 1994. Hospice was coming to the house and was somewhat benefitting for my brother until he could no longer swallow the liquid morphine. We had to transfer him to a hospice care center where he died just 3 days later in complete agony. The night shift nurses, one in particular wasn't giving him the morphine injections. She was using it herself. And other patients were moaning in pain. So to this day I have zero faith in hospice. The second bad experience with hospice was in the year 2000 when my mom needed to be kept comfortable when she was dying. Hospice back then had a rule that they couldn't help until my mom was deemed to have six months to live or less. They decided she had slightly more than six months to live and they finally decided to come into the home where I was taking care of her. When they called to say they will be coming that day I had to decline their help because Mom had passed away 20 minutes before they called me to help. I'm very wary of hospice and the suffering that is allowed to happen. Now that I am terminal with illness and have home healthcare workers coming to my house, I'm very worried. I've yet to try hospice even though it's being recommend. I can't be the only one with not one but two bad experiences with hospice. I'm not trying to discourage patients from using hospice, I'm just telling my story.
😘😘😘😘😘
Wishing you better days.
@@raindrops1942 thank you.
I had a similar experience when a loved one passed away. Im not saying all hospice care in the US is bad but it's nothing like what these lovely people provide.
@@redfernj2557 Yes Red. Thanks for your comment. Best to you!
Especially those working in hospice and nursing homes, but every one working in patient care should have a weekly group therapy available to attend if they want.
Rest easy Reece xx
No, American Hospice care is performed in nursing homes and we give hospice companies a place to make the patients comfortable when they can't be at home.
These people are beautiful
Im british just to let you know healthcare is not free in the uk the nhs is funded by contributions from wages but because everyone is on it its cheaper as its cost is spread over millions of people the poor pays less the rich pay more it averages out it about £137 per head per month much cheaper than the us but nothing is free also hospice is not like this all over the uk it depends where you are the nhs used to be fantastic now not so good
I recently read something about this and I don't know why Americans aren't angry about it. Of course, it's true we pay for the NHS through taxes. What I didn't realise is that we pay less each per month than the average American spends on health insurance. Not only this but the US government actually spends a bigger percentage of its GDP on healthcare than the UK government. I don't know how or why but I'm guessing it must be on care for people who don't have insurance. No idea. So presumably this money must comes from taxation too. So Americans pay for healthcare through taxation and still have to buy insurance. What is truly shocking is that if you compare actual costs of medical procedures in the USA they are many, many times higher than in the UK. Why? Because in the UK a hospital is run by the state as a non-profit service. The cost of any operation for example will be presented to the state who pays it. But it is a simple transaction between different branches of the NHS. In the USA all hospitals are private so need to make a profit. Therefore they charge much more for procedures to cover costs and profit. The insurance cough up the money but they are also profit making businesses. All of this - the higher costs, the hospital profits and the insurance profits is passed on to the customer who buy the policies. So the Americans are not just buying healthcare. They are paying for the running of the hospitals and the insurance companies. This is why the health system is so expensive in the USA. Running it as a service through taxes works out cheaper for everybody.
We're having the same issue here in Australia.
At the hospitals here, people are LITERALLY taking tents and camping out at the hospitals, just to be seen in the emergency room.
But in saying that, I'd still much, MUCH prefer that than what it's like in the US.
@@blotski when I was 9, I had a bicycle accident where they revealed that I actually had cancer in my kidney (I'd been complaining of tummy pains for MONTHS)
The very next day I was at the childrens Hospital having surgery to figure out what type of cancer I had.
If I had of lived in America, that probably wouldn't have happened, and I'd be dead.

I hope Reece recovers soon 🙏🏼
Unfortunately there's no cure for MS, its a progressive illness that will eventually kill him.
Reese passed away 2021
@@addiemartins4878- Ohhh no! I really hoped he’d get a remission! Such a tragedy when someone is so young and alive! But, he’s in a better place!💞
My husband had MS he never took any meds for it but he did the controversial procedure where they went through his groin vain alway up to jugular vein and there was narrowing in the jugular vein, after they opened it he started to walk again. Dr Zamboni that is cardiologist says MS is a plumbing problem where the jugular veins narrow. Please check Dr Zamboni on you tube! His wife was in wheelchair he did the procedure on her she walks now.
What about the young guy with MS? Nothing mentioned concerning him at the end(like the others).
He passed away 2021
Awful, thanks Sheila.
That is just so sad. What a beautiful young man.

We have great Hospice Houses here in my area of Florida
How many beds each house? On average.
I’m sure tho in your area with the great influx of the elderly/ retirees there are more than usual in the rest of the US!
@@YeshuaKingMessiah not sure,maybe 12-16 or so.
how am i the first comment on the video and this was 2 yrs ago?
It’s weird, isn’t it? This is such an important video, relevant to everyone on this planet (we’re all going to leave this earth at some point), yet so few views and comments. This says a lot about our society/culture, and it’s not good.
The vicar with the white cats tho...😂
hmm no wallet????
One of these places has, as its motto, " xxxx Hospice - where life....continues.."
What is the state of use of hydromorphone and oxymorphone in hospices now? They are incredible drugs for the end of life period before the requirement of diamorphine. They increase activity and give euphoria and the right doses giving people the best last few months-weeks as possible until the final 7 days where diamorphine is usually indicated.
If u have months left I don’t think ur on hospice, here in the US. I had a pt as an aide in excruciating pain for a month, or 2 rly-till he was on hospice. Then, all the meds he wanted! He was in a stupor hardly able to open his eyes till he died.
Death is an open door to truth.
That David !!

Graves end what a name for the hospice scary
It's the name of a town
