“Hospice Persists During Coronavirus Pandemic And
The New Norm” by Dr. Vanitha A/P R.
Thangaratnam, Senior Hospice Doctor, Kasih Hospice
Good afternoon, everyone. Thank you very much, Dr Goh. I think you've mentioned part of my
first and second slide. Yes, we are an NGO and we are charitable. Yeah, we mainly do home
visits to patients with life-limiting illness with stage 4 cancer, end stage renal failure who have
ceased dialysis covering from Petaling Jaya all the way to Bukit Beruntung. So that's kind of a
wide coverage going through many roadblocks during this MCO. Each of this area is actually
covered by one designated nurse.
