Understanding the Final Stages of Alcoholism and Liver Failure 🩺

What happens when someone dies from alcoholism? In this video, I break down the stages of liver failure due to alcohol and what it looks like in hospice care. While not all liver failure is caused by alcoholism, many patients I see experience jaundice, ascites, confusion, agitation, and bleeding as their liver stops functioning. I also discuss how we manage symptoms like pain and discomfort in end-of-life care. This video is meant to educate, not scare. If you or someone you love is struggling with alcohol, there is help available. You are not alone. When dealing with any medically related events or medical emergencies, please communicate with your primary health care provider.
