Video for Palliative patients and family
One of our doctors actually designed a video because of our patients having low immune system
with high risk of getting COVID-19 infection. We made a video to inform the patients and
family members that it is risky to go back to hospital. So, they would liaise with the hospice
medical team if there is a need to top up medicines or if there are any uncontrolled symptoms,
they would contact the medical team, and we would see what can be done. If it can be controlled
within the means of home visit, we would do it. If not we would actually liaise with the doctors
at the hospital and try to work something out for the patient.
