Much of the daily care provided in hospice is rendered by family caregivers, and few of them have any previous experience of caring for the very ill. A range of instructive videotapes can reinforce what nurses have shown the caregivers. Examples in this link are from the Home Care Companion Video Series, and include: "How to Care for Someone on Bedrest," "How to Manage Medications," and "Fall Prevention."
