Knowing the last wishes of our clients and trying to fulfill them. That is also one of the pieces of Sue Ryder’s mosaic of dignified care, and the reason why we took Madam Marie to the Říp mountain on March 5th, 2020.
Vlasta, a client of the Sue Ryder senior citizen home, says: „I experienced the war. It was evil. But ageing is also a struggle. Each of the clients of this home also fights their small battles every day. With pain, for instance.“ And it is against the pain that rehabilitation can effectively help. And also with clients in palliative care.
Mrs. Eva wrote to us via www.neztratitsevestari.cz. Her grandmother was hospitalized after neck of femure fracture and her condition worsened. Eva was therefore looking for information about the possibilities of quality care for her loved grandmother.
Sue Ryder's clients and the care team know that old age is as fragile as recently carefully stored Christmas decorations. Fortunately, you, the kind and generous donors, are here! With respect for the wisdom and experience that old age brings, you helped the most fragile seniors. And what is the balance of your good deeds?
„We, me and the other old people who need the Sue Ryder home, resemble the ill or wounded birds I once cared for at my home. We are having power to fly only if there is someone by our side. And that is the reason I am here. I am missing my home but I also know that we need help with almost everything and here I am not abandoned in my ageing. Moreover everybody here attends to my wishes in my remaining time."
Eržika Frinková is a chaplain in Sue Ryder. By the nature of her profession, she often owns spiritual care for clients who are at the end of the journey of their days. Therefore, their view of the world and the current situation is different from ours. We still have many years ahead of us. They don't have this time anymore.
