Abstract
ABSTRACT COVID-19 has impacted patients with terminal illness at the end-of-life phase and their families. This paper describes how Covid-19 affected these patients’ choice of care and families’ coping, including their bereavement experiences. It also explains the role of social workers in the home hospice setting in identifying and addressing social and psychological distress faced by patients and families. Social workers play an important role in advocating for equitable access to health and social care by seeking clarity in roles, and negotiating new boundaries and restrictions set in service provisions.
