Resources

Picture
Tidal has an extensive database of educational and informational resources that may be helpful in answering many of your questions, and may also prompt you to reflect and consider different approaches.  Some of the resources are written specifically for an end of life situation while others are not, but could be applied to those circumstances. Some resources are based on legislation and services offered within the province of Nova Scotia, Canada.
 
The material linked below was collected through many years of service.  It was gathered from journals, studies, non-profit organizations, blogs, newsletters, and government websites.  Please check the citation at the end of printed material to determine whether it is the authors opinion, an industry best-practice, or peer reviewed material.  Resources are listed alphabetically by subject matter.  An asterisk (*) indicates that there are multiple resources on that topic that can be emailed to you.
