What does it mean to you to be in a good place to die?
To know that my children are safe and happy.

To be involved at every stage,, to have any questions answered and remove any fears..
For people to see me as a person and not be focused on me dying,
Maintain my dignity and allow me to have control and let me die at home.
All of the above St Richards Hospice did for my father, we are always grateful that he was supported to be in a good place to die physically and mentally.
