Providing compassionate care on the journey towards the end of life generates a number of challenges for the professionals caring for a patient and their family. Many of the issues that cause ethical dilemmas are emotive and can lead to misunderstandings and inaccurate perceptions of hospice and end of life care.
Here at Trinity, we are open and honest in everything we do, and have clear position statements on a number of common ethical dilemmas. We hope these go some way to explain the challenges we may face, and our considered response to them.
