Duke was brought into her room

She died in the presence of “Duke” — the bird that she ensured was “tucked in” before she goes to bed every night.

This is what “End of Life” care is about.

As one of our residents is dying, “Duke” was brought into her room and stayed there until she died. We truly believe that this simple act of great value to her, her family and the whole team.
