Lecture Title: Life three circumstances: face life and death, cognitive life and death, open-minded life and death


Abstract:


Faced with the topic of life and death, everyone may have some questions: Can people live forever? Is there eternal life in the world? For medical people, the question of death is more special. How to face death and understand death is an important topic in the growing process of medical students. Today, with the rapid development of technology, we need to recover the temperature of medicine and provide humanized hospice care for end-stage patients. This lecture will take the three circumstances of life as the main line, and discuss the attitude of life and death and hospice care as the main content.
