Abstract

The "wine bar" in the palliative care unit of Clermont-Ferrand general hospital is an example of a different way of providing care. It defends the right of patients at the end of life to treat themselves and others. Acknowledging that life is present right up until the end, patients are invited to drink wine at mealtimes and caregivers are encouraged to learn the basics of oenology.

Keywords: bar à vin; bien-être; caregiving; end of life; fin de vie; palliative care; prendre soin; soins palliatifs; wellbeing; wine bar.
