Hospice also provides care for the survivors. Teri also explains how hospice provides care for people with AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome). Later Teri presents an exercise of calming that she occasionally uses with her staff.
How do we deal with grief and the death of loved ones? Teri explains the dedication of hospice workers and also the challenges with the job.
