As long as it is a choice! It must be the patients choice! Many of us “Old people” want to die naturally. We… don’t want to choose the suicide, we just want to go as naturally as possible. As it’s wrong Biblically wrong to commit suicide! That said, we humans get the right to choose The last thing is that the human being dying gets to choice.
this was great! Thank you for the level of detail in discussing palliative care, that really sets you apart from some of the other content I've seen on this subject!
Why thank you so much! Every video I try my best to get to the real "meat & potatoes" of the topic. Thank you for letting me know that you think I succeeded! I appreciate you watching and commenting.
As a RN case manager I found that it’s the Palliative Care team that is burdensome. Often the patient is ready for Hospice and PC team keeps them second guessing their decisions. They wouldn’t let the patients go - much like Oncology Dr wouldn’t stop treatments. The patient gets awfully confused. They are ready for end of life and Hospice but the PC team wants to continue palliation of care and didn’t want to talk to the patients about Hospice. Since the “H” word became taboo the hospice grp got pushed out of the inpatient hospital environment and was replaced by the “softer” version of Palliative Care. Before I retired I was trying to get the Hospice grp integrated back in so that patients could truly have a choice and talk to hospice directly themselves so that they could then make a decision how to proceed in their treatment process.
Thanks for sharing your experiences. That’s too bad that this happens sometimes. I would think it is definitely different among different palliative care teams. I also imagine that it’s a difficult line to walk between being realistic about outcomes, but also not letting patients go to hospice over what could be perceived as some more momentary depression. I totally agree that patients should know all their options, however and decision should be up to them.
How do I still have Rx and testing an continue to Have new tests and my doctor that I can see? I want to stay at home with daily help for my problems. I do not want to leave my home but have a high presence by medical staff mostly on a daily basis. We have no in hospital Palative care.😊
If you have several serious major illnesses being cared for by 11 doctors. Can someone help with changing out iliostomy bags and other things able to h have palliative care daily.😊
I agree! People should know the basics about taking care of themselves and the options they have regarding their health. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Seems to me a group of people doing nothing and trying to justify it. I still dont understand what you're doing other than keeping a dying person on treatments. Because you know, treatment is where the money is at. 🙄
Did you even watch the video? She clearly states that this is not hospice. Many of the patients don't have terminal illnesses, meaning they can recover to their regular health. For others, they may not be able to return to full health, so Palliative Care helps steer people through an illness helping them figure out what they really want and what treatments, if any, would be best for them. She also clearly states that sometimes stopping treatment is the best plan. While I don't work in Palliative Care, for the 9 years that I have been a PA, I never once offered or considered a treatment for someone based on revenue. Most of sincerely do our best to suggest what we think is best for the patient.
Twaddle . Got enough stress nice to know you getting a wage and feeling nice about itn all but do tell me this 3 week plan linked to the euthanasia programme proposed by the government G.
Do you have an experience with palliative care? Tell us about it!

First aid and palliative care should be mandatory in all schools around the world

Did you even read my comment?
@@someguy936 Well, my lengthy response directly addressing what your comment was would indicate that I did read your comment.
@TheMedicineCouch it's not easy justifying your "job" is it?
@@someguy936 Actually, it's quite easy.
