The Life of a Hospice Nurse

Paige Prokop is a kind and patient person. You see it in her eyes and by the way she talks. The time she spends helping people as a Houston Hospice nurse is precious because time is something her patients don’t have much of. “That’s the number one question I get is ‘how long do you think I have?’ I don’t know. I tell my patients we’re going to take it one day at a time.”

The conversations are frank, heart-warming and not to be missed by anyone who shares a passion for end-of-life care. Click here to watch the video.
