💭 Where we are cared for at the end of life matters.

Many people experience changes in care settings during the final months of life.

Our Dying, Death and Bereavement in Ireland Report found that 43% of people who received care at home during the last three months of life later died in hospital.

Moving between home, hospital, nursing home or hospice care can be stressful and uncertain for both the person receiving care and the people closest to them.

💛 That's why clear communication, coordination and compassionate support matter so much.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

This October, Irish Hospice Foundation is thinking of everyone whose life has been touched by breast cancer.

💗 Those living with breast cancer
💗 Those undergoing treatment
💗 Those supporting a loved one
💗 Those living with loss
💗 Those remembering someone they miss

Breast cancer affects individuals, families, workplaces and communities. It can bring uncertainty, challenge and change, but it can also highlight the importance of connection, support and compassion.

If this month raises difficult emotions or memories, please remember that support is available.

Some dates live quietly in our hearts.
This , we're reflecting on the anniversaries that grief creates — the dates nobody else sees, but that we remember all too well. 🌿💛

The last normal day. The last conversation. The last laugh. The last time they said your name.

These moments can stay with us long after a loss, resurfacing unexpectedly and reminding us of the love we continue to carry. While others may not notice these anniversaries, our hearts often keep their own calendar.

If you're finding one of those days particularly difficult, please know your feelings are valid. Be gentle with yourself and give yourself permission to remember, reflect, and honour the person you miss.

💭 Would your workplace know how to respond if a colleague was grieving?

This World Mental Health Day, we're shining a light on an often-overlooked aspect of workplace wellbeing: grief.

How we respond to bereavement in the workplace can make a lasting difference to an employee's wellbeing, sense of connection, and ability to navigate one of life's most difficult experiences.

💛 Supportive workplaces don't need perfect words. They need compassionate leadership, understanding colleagues and a culture that recognises grief as a natural part of life.
