Hospice & Palliative Care and Muslims

Shownotes:

Our very own cohost Uzma Jafri joins us on this episode to explain why and how she specialized in medicine, "walking with" her patients at the end of their lives, and why it's Islamically important to know how to help families face the end of life. A lot of Muslims do not understand the difference between palliative care and hospice, so swipe left to read some easy definitions about them.

This episode is for anyone who is a caregiver because if it's not our kids, we are also taking care of an older generation at some point in our lives. As always, if you have further questions, stay tuned this month or DM us because we mean it when we say we are available for you.
