Dying Matters Awareness Week 2022 is our chance to get our community, patients and staff talking about dying and grief. We want everyone to be #InAGoodPlace when they die, whatever that means for them. Unfortunately some people are dying without the support they need, and we know that it's by talking and sharing stories that we can remove the taboo and stigma around these topics.

This week is our chance to get talking, share stories and to call for end of life for all. The Palliative Care Team at UHNM will be promoting ways in which we can talk to our patients, colleagues about how we can support them with these conversations. This is the second out of six podcasts, highlighting and talking about different topics around death and dying, along with features from other members of UHNM and how they can support you.

How does UHNM's Spiritual, pastoral and religious care team support patients, families, carers or staff who would like support? This podcast explores how the the palliative care and chaplaincy team work together to support patients and families, weather they hold a faith or not. Listen to the team discuss experiences and how you can get in touch with them.
