How can we learn from the death of a care home resident?
This short video demonstrates how to lead a discussion with care home staff (called reflective debriefing), focusing on what went well and what can be improved in end of life care. With the high number of deaths of older people in care homes due to COVID19, this is a timely way to support better end of life care. The video was adapted by Sharon Kaasalainen from McMaster’s University, Canada, from learning materials produced by the International Observatory on End of Life Care as part of the PACE project.
