About this listen

A summer with terminal patients wasn’t what Sonia had in mind when she signed up for her school’s nursing internship program. With no previous exposure to death or dying, Sonia joins the ragtag team at Tender Hands Hospice (Your Best Last Resort) and becomes the center of attention to the oddball nurses who work in end-of-life care.

Over six weeks, Sonia finds herself passed around a variety of preceptors while facing her fears of corpses, patient nudity, and the strange quirks of one sugar-addicted nurse. Given the choice to sink or swim, Sonia struggles to keep afloat only to discover through a series of bizarre and heartbreaking patient encounters that it takes more than a set of skills to be a nurse.

Six weeks of laughter, eccentric nursing humor, and bittersweet moments.

Six weeks to show what she’s made of.

And six weeks to learn that there’s more life in hospice than she thought.
