Facing the possibility of someone's passing can be a difficult and emotional experience. In this video, I hope to offer you some guidance on how to recognize and respond to certain signs that may arise as someone nears the end of their life. My aim is to provide you with a general overview of 5 common changes that a patient may experience during this time. I hope that by learning about these signs, you can feel more prepared and less anxious about what lies ahead. Remember, being informed and aware can help you provide the best care and support for your loved one during this challenging time.
