End-of-Life Care
I've discovered that end-of-life care is the word used to describe the
assistance and medical attention provided in the moments
preceding death. This kind of care is provided at all times, not just
in the final seconds before breathing and heartbeat stop. Older
adults sometimes have one or more chronic illnesses and require
substantial care up to their deaths, which could take days, weeks,
or even months. Depending on a person's requirements,
preferences, or decisions, the end of life may look differently. Also,
Some people may prefer to pass away at home, while others may
prefer to receive care in a hospital or other institution right up until
the very end. Although most people like to be around their family
and friends, it's typical for some people to wish to be alone.
