“Facing death differently: revolutionising our approach to death and grief”.

A really important piece here from @lucyselman.bsky.social in the @bmj.com.

I’ll try to pick out some highlights in a🧵, but actually I’d recommend reading the whole article.

Link here:
www.bmj.com/content/387/...
First page of article. Fairytale type pic of Princess leaning over dead or sleeping Prince. Facing death and grief: revolution needed Despite growing public interest in death, support for end-of-life care and bereavement remains inadequate. We urgently need a revolution: a community centred, public health approach to the social processes of dying and mourning, backed by properly funded palliative care, writes Lucy Selman. Pic of man in bed in hospital. Sample of text: In the UK around 90% of dying people would benefit from palliative care, but 25% don't get it. Demand is set to rise 25% over the next 25 years as lifespans increase and health conditions grow more complex, yet the sector is already critically underfunded. Just a third of UK hospice funding comes from the state, with the remaining £1bn raised annually through charity shops, fundraising events, and donation. This funding gap sends a clear message: care for dying people is less valued than aggressive treatments and high tech medical advances. (It's surely no coincidence that 9 in 10 of the clinical and care workforce in UK hospices are women, reflecting a long history of "women's work" being undervalued.) Pic of someone being cared for and having their hair brushed. Sample of text: Clinicians too have a critical role in reshaping attitudes and so must build their own death and grief literacy. By discussing end-of-life care openly and challenging common misconceptions, they can model acceptance of dying, build trust, and show the public that it is safe to ask questions and voice doubts and fears. Care must be emotionally aware, culturally sensitive, compassionate, and person centred-and this must be reflected in clinical education. Clinical leaders must acknowledge the emotional weight of dealing with death and grief and offer support, encouraging sharing, peer support, and remembrance. By making space for grief and vulnerability in professional life we nurture the human side of being a clinician.
