Description

Myung-Nam Lee and four co-authors ask nurses what good care means at the end of life, in a study from 2024. Nurses in intensive care, hospice wards, and nursing homes hold deep first-hand knowledge of dying patients. Their view can guide better training and ward practice.

Nine nurses with at least two years in this work gave long interviews in 2023. The team sorted their accounts into themes about the patient-nurse bond, daily practice, and the care setting. Practice themes were the most common, followed by bond themes. Across all themes, close attention to the person, clear talk, and calm presence stood out as core to good care.
