But most people don't learn about hospice until they feel they have no other choice. Delaying that education means it's often too late to take advantage of the many benefits hospice can offer. With The Hospice Handbook, Nurse Debbie wants to change all that. By empowering patients, families, and other caregivers with the tools they need to navigate the complicated world of hospice care, she hopes to improve hospice patients' quality of life dramatically. Employing her trademark love, compassion, and folksy humor, which comes from her own dear father, Pappy, who inspired her to open Serenity First Hospice Care in Richmond, Virginia, Nurse Debbie provides invaluable advice and crucial facts about the many facets of hospice, including interviews with vital members of the hospice care team."--Back cover. 650 0 $a Hospice care. 650 0 $a Death $x Psychological aspects. 650 0 $a Terminally ill. 941 $a 1 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20221208011744.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=650143FA76C811EDB5DF185655ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
