| Project Summary | There is a gap in health education and community awareness around end-of-life care. Most palliative care programs do not speak to the heart nor do they give adequate attention to the range of physical, psychological, and existential suffering or the opportunity for growth and healing that dying presents. Following our success in palliative care undergraduate, post graduate and CME using the 1999 film End Notes, we aim to extend the curriculum and enhance public education by creating a multidisciplinary teaching DVD of the personal experiences of those who give and receive care.
