Caring for Patients and Supporting Families
What does palliative nursing really look like? In this moving episode, three experienced nurses share the heart of hospice care—across home, hospital, and inpatient settings.
Discover The Journey Together, a podcast by North West Hospice Charity. Hear expert advice, personal stories, and emotional support for patients, families, and caregivers navigating palliative care.
“People think palliative care means there's no hope. But over time, they realise… our role is very much around hope. It’s not about active treatment anymore—it’s about living. And focusing on the things that are most important to people as their illness progresses.”
“Even in end-of-life care… to be there, to provide that… it's an absolute privilege to look after people. Whether it's sorting the pain relief… or just being with them in their final days… it's such an honour.”
