🎙️ Talking to children about a life-limiting or terminal illness - Leo
Welcome to another episode of the "Life and Loss" podcast, brought to you by Forest Holme Hospice in Poole, Dorset. In this episode, Leo, a Social Worker based at Forest Holme Hospice, discusses when and how to begin discussing a terminal diagnosis with a child, sharing advice on age-appropriate language and communication strategies.
He explains how to approach and start a conversation about this very emotive subject, the use of age-appropriate language and the type of reactions and questions you may expect from a child.
