Important and useful report and recommendations for all of us involved in hospice and palliative care.
Everyone deserves excellent #endoflife care, but for many in the trans & gender diverse community, barriers make accessing it difficult. Published in February, our report sets out recommendations for professionals so everyone feels safe & supported. loom.ly/hyztXwE

Do you know an amazing social worker? We certainly do! You could nominate them here…. socialworkawards.com/swa-finalists-… #socialwork #palliativecare #socialworkeroftheyear
Any thoughts on this too?! what benefits the social aspect/ social interactions and activities have for patients and their care?
Any thoughts on this question? what elements of the social side of the IPU could return with COVID restrictions slowly easing? What social activities are provided for patients? How does this impact on care they are receiving? Who is delivering this, volunteers and/or staff? 👇
