[quote=Anonymous]Op, I don't know if you are on Tiktok but there is a user called hospice nurse penny who is SO informative. I'm an RN and have taken care of many end of life patients in my career. She has educated me and changed my practice with some of what she's spoken about. Her videos can be hard to watch as she does discuss some parts of the dying process but there is a lot of education that can be helpful too. For instance, at true end of life, drinking water is actually worse for the patient. Its a common misconception because it feels like you're being cruel taking water away, but its actually worse for the person to be drinking. Mouth care so he's not dry and all that is excellent, but actually drinking water isn't. [/quote]
