On Death & Dying With Author, Speaker, Thought Leader & Expert on End of Life Care, Barbara Karnes The Power of Love Show

On this episode of The Power of Love Show we welcome special guest, Barbara Karnes, RN.

If it has to do with death and dying, Barbara Karnes, RN is talking about it. Barbara Karnes, RN, is an internationally recognized author, speaker, thought leader and expert on end of life care and the dynamics of dying.

Barbara’s career spans four decades and began as an early hospice pioneer during the AIDS crisis. In addition to the many years she has spent at the bedside caring for patients and their families as a nurse, Barbara has also served as executive director of hospice and various home-health agencies. She has also worked through the hospice ranks as patient care manager, clinical director, staff, nurse, and volunteer. Barbara is a dedicated end of life educator, training nurses and volunteers, authoring resource materials, booklets, movies, and her fabulous blog.

Barbara’s experience as a hospice care provider at the bedside of hundreds of people, and as an administrator overseeing the care of thousands, led to the 1985 publication of ‘Gone from My Sight: The Dying Experience’. Affectionately referred to in the industry as the “little blue hospice book,” ‘Gone from My Sight’ has sold over 30 million copies worldwide, is published in 12 languages, and remains the leading resource on the market today educating families on the signs of approaching death.
