Kindness till the end

These two staff members are passionate about caring for people at the end of their lives – and the loved ones they leave behind.

Meg and Margaret are providing dignity and quality of life to people throughout the pandemic as part of our Palliative Care team.

Margaret is a nurse, Emeritus Professor and former President of Palliative Care Victoria, whose passion for her work developed after caring for her own father.

The privilege of working with people in their homes is something that’s never really left me,” she says.

Meg is a bereavement counsellor with more than 25 years’ experience in grief and loss. She says MCM is a special place to work.

MCM set up the first palliative care hospice in Melbourne in the 1970s and has a strong reputation for excellence. I’m touched by the care and compassion staff have demonstrated at this difficult time.

Thank you, Meg and Margaret, for continuing to provide critical care when it’s needed most.
