Question

How often do you engage with or witness death in your work? How has this experience or the lack of it shaped your view of death? Has it gotten easier or harder for you to accept the fact of death? As you explain, include your clinical specialty.

Answer 1

Healthcare sector is a place where not only birth of a new life occurs but also death is a common incident happening here.The perception of death by each individual is unique and so the acceptance.One can witness death mostly in an intensive care unit when patients are critically ill.The first time experience to handle a death patient can be a nightmare and the thoughts on death care given to them can stay life long to a healthcare professional. It makes one understand that every life has an end how great they are.The physical presence is absent but the memories of good deeds done by them are always remembered.Repeated handling of death cases can be easier for instance a person working in a mortuary unit.The acceptance of it will be higher comparatively to others.
