ACREOL Global shared on LinkedIn:

“When Families Become Caregivers: The Realities of End-of-Life Care.

A new publication in Evidence-Based Nursing (BMJ) by Dr. Despina Anagnostou (Associate Professor, Kyoto University) and Dr. Christian Ntizimira (Founder and Executive Director, ACREOL Global) explores an essential part of end-of-life care: the family caregiver.

The paper highlights how caregiving is shaped by:

  •  Cultural values and expectations
  •  Family relationships and obligations
  •  Caregiver experiences and needs
  •  Social context

The findings reinforce the importance of culturally responsive, community-centred palliative care.”
