ICYMI - last week @uclbrainscience.bsky.social spoke to Dr @libbysallnow.bsky.social for #WHPCD on the importance of end of life care and why we need to talk about dying.

Today is #WHPCDay25! In this video, #palliativecare leader, Dr. Kathryn Mannix calls for dying to be reclaimed as an important and intimate part of every human being’s life. To shift from a medicalized approach to a holistic one. #WHPCD
