Ep12 - Community
It’s been said that “It takes a village to raise a child”, which emphasises the communal effort required for the upbringing of a child. The same could be said of the all-in efforts and all-round resources required to take care of a person with terminal illness at the end of life. In this episode, we discuss community and its importance in palliative care. Palliative care is not the sole province
Ep11 - Patience
In caregiving at the end of life, patience is a crucial quality that involves the ability to remain calm, understanding, and supportive while providing care to individuals who are approaching the end of their lives. This episode, we explore how caregiving at the end of life is about being present, compassionate, and understanding. It involves a commitment to providing comfort and support, acknowle
Ep10 - Forgiveness
Reconciliation plays an important role in the psychosocial and spiritual aspects of palliative care, especially when addressing the profound impact of anger and regret. The act of forgiveness becomes significant towards the end of life as it holds the power to bring healing to both the forgiver and the forgiven. Expressing sentiments like "I am sorry" and "I forgive you" becomes particularly meani
Ep9 - Resilience
Resilience can be defined as the remarkable capacity to endure, withstand, and recover from adversity—a testament to one's toughness in the face of challenges. Patients facing life-limiting illness demonstrate resilience in how they navigate the emotional and existential challenges, adapt to their changing circumstances and find strength during adversity. This episode also explores the realm of ca
Ep8 - Courage
Courage can be defined as the quality of mind or spirit that enables individuals to face difficulty, danger or pain without succumbing to fear. For patients, facing death and the process of dying can be profoundly daunting. For caregivers, it can be overwhelming to face the prospect of losing their loved one and manage the demands of both daily life and their caregiving duties. Today, we hear from
Ep7 - Authenticity
In our 7th episode, we explore "Authenticity", which entails being genuine, aligning actions with inner truth, and expressing one’s unique identity. For patients with a life-limiting illness, embodying 'Living Before Leaving' means aligning decisions with personal values, prioritising meaningful experiences, and tailoring care to individual needs and wishes in palliative settings. Today, we hear
Ep6 - Compassion
In our 6th episode, we focus on "Compassion". In essence, palliative care is compassionate, as its main goal is to bring comfort and relieve pain and suffering at the end of life. Showing kindness to yourself and others during difficult or vulnerable moments can help to relieve mental and emotional suffering as well. We hear from 4 guests - 2 patients, 2 caregivers - on the importance of compassio
Ep5 - Gratitude
Our 5th episode is on Gratitude. Being grateful for what one has contributes to feelings of satisfaction in life, to cherish big things and appreciate the little things. Being in the moment and living life to the best of your ability can make a huge difference. At the end of life, expressing gratitude can deepen interpersonal relationships. And in palliative care, we try to create the space needed
Ep4 - Optimism
Our 4th episode is on Optimism. What does it mean to have optimism at the end of life? Perhaps it is a life well lived before leaving, one in which the difficult moments can be met head on, that a patient can have control over their own perspective. Perhaps it is about writing their life story, autonomy to live one’s last days as they choose, and to overcome the hopelessness that can be associated
Ep3 - Love
Our 3rd episode is about Love. Love is one of the three values of Singapore Hospice Council. Of all the emotions and experiences we have, love is the most powerful. The love between caregivers and their loved ones often transcends words. It’s found in the shared smiles, in acts of service, and even just in a comforting presence. In the world of caregiving and palliative care, love is the foundatio
Ep2 - Dignity
In our 2nd episode, we focus on "Dignity" - what it means for patients, at their end-of-life, to have a dignified death. We talk to an actor and voice talent who shares about how his mother planned for her passing, an occupational therapist at Dover Park Hospice who explains how they help patients, and a palliative nurse from Tzu-Chi Foundation (Singapore), whose life passion is to help patients h
