A terminal diagnosis is a devastating moment in the life of both the patient and their family. The Hospice 'Buen Samaritano\u00e2?\u009d is an organization that gives assistance to patients with scarce resources and helps them through their last journey.<\/p>\n
The center is located in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and opened its doors to its first patient five years ago. They insist that, more than a clinic, the hospice is a home.<\/p>\n

\n'This is all about the encounter between two people. Placing ourselves at their level, looking at them directly, listening to them. We help them feel like real people.\u00e2?\u009d<\/p>\n
Beyond medical assistance, the hospice offers human warmth and company during their most difficult moments. Their mission is to make sure the patient's last days are full of life.<\/p>\n
DR. MATIAS NAJUN
\nPresident, Hospice Buen Samaritano
\n'The right sedative is not enough. We must embrace them as a whole. We must embrace the person and their situation in order to help them. For total pain, you need the total care the hospice offers.\u00e2?\u009d<\/p>\n
The center counts with over 100 volunteers. These include nurses, palliative doctors, psychologists, as well as social and religious workers. Everything to assist the patients and their families.<\/p>\n

Their humanitarian work has gained them several \u00a0awards, including the 'Abanderados de la Argentina Solidaria\u00e2?\u009d 2014 Award.<\/p>\n
