Quick Tip
Create Sacred and Meaningful Moments
Find ways to honor your loved one’s life and create meaningful experiences during this difficult time. This might include playing their favorite music, sharing stories with nurses about who they are, or simply holding their hand in quiet moments.
Sometimes the most powerful support is silent presence. Rather than always trying to talk or fix things, learn to sit with your loved one in comfortable silence. Watch for non-verbal cues that tell you what they need in the moment.
