[bogsnurse]

ei im a student nurse from the philippines and hoping to graduate on 2008 batch and also a new member of allnurses.com. We are having a thesis about the effect of music therapy on terminally ill patient and planning to visit hospice institution. Can you give me some advice to help me and my group? what to expect? what the things we should or not do? What kind of therapy/communications and also what the best thing to do to help them and even the staff... thank you and god bless!

To "bogsnurse"- this is a reply to the question about music and effect with dying people. You might want to google onto "Chalice of Repose". This is, hmm what would you call it, an organization that specializes in helping people with terminal illness through music. There are several websites devoted to this organization, but offhand i don't know the name. just goggle it in and I'm sure you'll find it.
