Hi Doreen, this DVD is filmed from a workshop I used to give to hospice professionals. This DVD enables me to reach and teach more people. Thank you for your comment. Blessings to you in the work you are doing. Barbara

Helps new and seasoned staff be able to explain the dying process to family and facility staff!

"This is How People Die" has helped me be able to train our new and seasoned staff how to explain the dying process in terms that they can use when talking to patients, families or facility staff. It has helped me better prepare staff on what it is that the patient or caregivers really want to know which is "what is going to happen to them or their loved one?" It simplifies the very complex dying process that hospice staff sometimes struggle to explain. It is also a good series for any discipline in your hospice to watch (i.e. volunteers, chaplain, CNA/HHA's, etc.), it is a good series to have family members view who need to know what to expect. Thank you, Barbara, for your service to our industry and your desire to teach others! We appreciate you.

Very valuable information for parish ministry continuing education

I purchased the DVD's This is How People Die, Grief: Exploring the Process, and New Rules for End of Life Care. I found the DVD's to be extremely informative, and well presented. I will be using them for continuing education with the parish ministries of Stephen Ministry, hospital ministry, nursing home ministry, home bound eucharistic ministry, and grief ministry. They are worth the investment. The books are a nice resource as well, but the DVD's are really the best.

This is what I wanted for my life.

When I was a little girl, I asked my dad "What's going to happen after I die" My dad said, "Don't even think about such a thing!". When your dad says "No", you get more curious, right So I did. I learned numerous versions of heavens and hells. I am quite an expert for that. However, I didn't know how people usually die. All I witness as an X-Ray tech, all the ICU patients die during CPR. Their bodies were bounced like a basketball. I said to myself "I don't want to be chest-compressed like that, and I don't want to die like that." When I die, I want to do like my mom. She died in sleep at home. She didn't have any hospice care, but she died naturally just like Barbara talks in the DVD. This DVD is first for me, then, for my loved ones. I am volunteering at the hospice from next month, I am sure that I can give Barbara's gift to the patients and their families. I thank my dad for not to think about death because I was a rebellious daughter.
