Five Things I've learnt about dying in the community, by nurse Sharon Hudson.

1. Death is a human condition not a medical one.

2. 95% of the time we are dying is spent with friends, family and community.

3. Walking your dog can be more important than medicine.

4. A social life helps you live longer.

5. Neighbours matter.
