Dispatches : on pain of death [DVD]

Dispatches : on pain of death [DVD] - London : Channel 4, 2005 - 1 videorecording (VHS)

In this shocking film, Professor Laurie Taylor reveals that much of the terrible pain people suffer before they die is entirely unnecessary - caused by a lack of proper pain relief in the British health system. Doctors fear giving morphine or lack training in its use and there is a shortage of specialist care for the dying both in hospitals and for those who die at home
