Soins Palliatifs Coronavirus

CHwapi  hospital, Tournai, Belgium 24/4/20.  Catherine night nurse listening to an old lady asking her how many days she has left before dying from coronavirus.  The lady is also sad to make her husband cry.
During first wave of Coronavirus in Belgium some elderly patients could not be saved by intensive care.  They were sent to the palliative unit.  The nurses who usually work there were used to deal with end-of-life patients but normally they could take care of the patients with the family.  Because of the sanitary measures they were alone with patients still contagious to the Coronavirus.  The most difficult was that they were banned from organizing any kind of embellishment of the last moments.   I started end of december 2019 a long story on nurse and elderly people.
