What do you think of when you hear the word “palliative”?
In this final episode of season one of Radical Nurse Talk, Kath Murray discusses the importance of words in serious illness. Words such as "palliative" that we use – or avoid using - can invoke fear, "giving up" and also, hope, support and quality of life. Listen while Kath, an exemplary nurse, author, entrepreneur and international educator shares insights and reflections about how language can open doors to a palliative approach to care that improves patient and family experience.
