This is all about what you know - a person-centred response to human emotions.A few tipis by our care expert, Abi Spence:Treat the person with dignity and respect, create space and privacy for them. Let the person know where you are taking them, and what happens nextNever presume you know the person or how they feel. They may never have visited, you may have been told things by the person who has died, but this does not mean you know the relationship or how they feelObserve what is happening - Observing sensitively enables you to gain a little insight into how that person may be experiencing their first emotions relating to death
