In this episode I talk about the importance of asking good questions that help our patients and caregivers move forward in their acceptance of an end of life experience.
The questions in this episode are the following…
- Is what I’m seeing something new?
- What does the word “hospice” mean to you?
- What do you hope these appointments will do for you?
- What do you plan to do when she stops feeding herself?
- Does he/she seem comfortable to you?
- What does comfortable look like for you?
- How can I best help you today?
At the end of the episode I do a little experiment with awkward silence. Ultimately, I explain that we tend to talk too much and listen too little.
