AnnotationThe age gap between residents in homes and care staff may sharply divide the two groups in their attitudes to death and their feelings about dying. This pamphlet makes the point that older people should be given the chance to talk about death and dying. Residential homes also need to be aware of individuals' wishes for funeral and other arrangements.
