Death
It's going to happen to all of us at some point.
As healthcare workers we need to be comfortable thinking about, talking about and managing dying patients and their death.
A key useful phrase to think of is "Sick enough to die" to help acknowledge a potential outcome of a patient. I first heard this from Kathryn Mannix, a palliative care consultant in the UK who has written a fascinating book "With the end in mind".
For clinicians I would also highly recommend the Resus Room podcast on End of Life care, featuring a discussion with Ed Presswood, a palliative care consultant:
