The family caregivers’ guide to the final days of life
The Informed Guide is here to empower those looking after their loved ones who are in their final days of life. The guide is there to lessen the anxiety of “I don’t know what to do”. It is presented as a suite of ‘pick up and put down’ materials presented in both video and written format to help you feel confident in a way that suits you.
See the guides How to useWho is the Informed Guide for?
We use the term ‘family caregiver’ to describe the people who will be looking after their loved ones. It can be used by anyone caring for someone at the end of their life, in their home, a hospital or hospice.
Pick up and put down
The Informed Guide is presented as a suite of ‘pick up and put down’ materials presented in both video and written format. We say ‘pick up and put down’ because the materials don’t have to be used from beginning to end, in one go. It’s not meant to be a training course, and it acknowledges that everyone learns in different ways. The idea is that you will be able to get straightforward, practical information, as and when you need it.
