Caring for the Living and Dying
Price range: $25.00 through $35.00
A compassionate and practical guide to caring for a loved one at end of life, drawing on the personal and professional experience of palliative care physician Michael Barbato.
Caring for someone who is dying is one of the most profound experiences a person can face. In Caring for the Living and Dying, Dr Michael Barbato draws on decades of personal and professional experience to explore what this journey truly involves — the physical demands, the emotional weight, and the questions that arise day to day and over the longer term.
Written with sensitivity and insight, the book offers practical guidance on many of the issues carers are likely to encounter, while honouring the depth and complexity of the experience itself. Rather than focusing on decline, it centres the humanity of both the person dying and those caring for them.
Suitable for family carers, end of life doulas, and health and care professionals, this is a thoughtful companion for anyone supporting someone through the end of life.
