HSWB｜End-of-Life Care Education Workshop
On November 4, a dedicated team from The Salvation Army's End-of-Life Care in Residential Care Homes for the Elderly visited the COMP2035 AI and Data Analytics for Health and Social Innovation I class to promote awareness and education on end-of-life care through engaging activities.
During the workshop, students participated in interactive booth games that focused on key principles of End-of-Life Care, including end-of-life planning and the importance of support and understanding from relatives. The team also invited two elderly guests, who shared their profound experiences and perspectives on this important topic.
While discussions around end-of-life issues can be emotionally challenging, the workshop inspired students to recognize the critical needs of individuals and their families facing such circumstances. We look forward to seeing the students' presentations on how technology can play a supportive role in addressing these needs.
