I've been present for the end-of-life care of 7 family members. Four died in hospitals. Two in nursing homes. One, my mother, at 99, died peacefully at home.
The difference was planning. Early, honest, coordinated planning.

But teams can train for these moments. Shared language helps. So does a predictable structure. Slow the encounter. Realign the group.

Every team has a moment when the encounter starts to tilt—one person gets overwhelmed, another shuts down, someone overfunctions. The slide is quiet but fast.
