  • "Nurses must help patients find meaning at the end of life, focusing on living [while] acknowledging death... What we as professionals do during this end-of-life period matters greatly to those whom we touch. Focusing primarily on the supportive and spiritual aspects of terminal care rather than on the physical aspects, this program discusses advance directives (living will, health care surrogate designation, do not resuscitate order); the end-of-life care plan, a way of addressing a person's future wishes and concerns while taking into account the benefits and burdens of potential treatment options; the holistic and interpersonal role of nurses in providing palliative care; and approaches to integrating a patient's personal spirituality into treatment during the end-of-life period. In addition, aspects of physiological dying, such as terminal dehydration, are touched upon. Designated for 2 contact hours of continuing nursing education."
