Cíl

The aim of the subject is to focus student´s attention to the problems of death and dying that are tabooed in our culture. Attendants should get acquainted with the death concept development throughout the life cycle, with the common problems connected with life threatening and lethal illnesses and diagnoses, as well as with the possible ways of handling this situation by dying person, his relatives or wider surroundings.
