We all deserve the right to DIGNITY, especially as we age.

In episode 8 of the 'How to Care' Podcast, our CEO, Cathy Thorpe, dives into the topic of dignity with Julia, the daughter of a Nurse Next Door client. Julia's dad received care from Nurse Next Door in the final part of his life. Julia describes how the theme of his care was around dignity and Happier Agingโ„ข.

Our philosophy of Happier Agingโ„ข is fundamental to how we deliver care and help our clients regain and maintain their dignity. We do this by providing Choice, Respect, Purpose, Autonomy, and Belonging.

Julia's Dad was experiencing a difficult time in his life, and she was doing her very best to care for him. However, the time spent together was becoming filled with daily care rather than making valuable memories.

She knew there must be a better way.

And fortunately, there wasโ€”Julia found a caregiver through Nurse Next Door.

From then on, she was able to focus on creating treasured memories with her Dad right up until his final days.

In Episode 8 of the 'How to Care' podcast, Julia shares her family's journey with navigating her Dad's care, her role during the process, and their difficult conversation about death.

Finding Purpose

Finding your purpose can be challengingโ€”yet, also one of the most rewarding journeys. โœจ

Ultimately, by finding our purpose, we can create more meaning, joy, and satisfaction in our lives.

If this is something you're struggling with, then we have the perfect inspiration for you...

On the 'How to Care' podcast, Cathy Thorpe, CEO of Nurse Next Door, and Kiran Samran, a Nurse Next Door Franchisee, dive deep into what purpose means to them and their journey to finding it.

They are both successful women in business (who really love their work...really they do!) but have also found a way to enjoy a healthy life outside of work.

From spending time with their kids to traveling and side hustles, they have been able to create a life of purpose and JOY!

Discover how you can bring more purpose into your life by listening to the 'How to Care' podcast on the Nurse Next Door website or wherever you listen to your podcasts.
