Kubler Ross's Stages of Dying01:21

Kubler Ross's Stages of Dying

Elisabeth Kübler-Ross significantly advanced psychology's understanding of the process of dying with her influential book, On Death and Dying (1969). She focused on studying terminally ill individuals and outlined five stages commonly experienced when coping with death: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.
In denial, individuals reject the reality of their condition, often thinking, "This isn't true; I feel fine," as a way to protect themselves from emotional distress. Anger...
Continuing Care01:25

Continuing Care

Continuing care describes the variety of health, personal, and social services provided over a prolonged period. The need for continuing care is increasing because people are living longer. Many people do not have families or others to care for them. Continuing care is mainly for patients who are disabled, functionally dependent, or suffering from a terminal disease. It is available within institutional settings or in homes. Examples include nursing centers or facilities, assisted living,...

Techniques of therapeutic communication I: Active Listening, Sharing Observations, Validation, and Using Touch

The history of therapeutic communication can be traced back to Florence Nightingale, who emphasized the importance of developing trusting relationships with patients. She taught that the presence of nurses with patients results in therapeutic healing.
Therapeutic communication is not the same as social interaction. Social interaction has no goal or purpose and consists of casual information sharing, whereas therapeutic communication has a plan or purpose for the conversation. Therapeutic...
Overview of Cell Death01:30

Overview of Cell Death

Cell death is an essential process where the body gets rid of old or damaged cells. Cell proliferation and death need to be balanced, as an imbalance between the two may lead to cancer or autoimmune diseases.
Cell death was observed in the early 19th century, but there was no experimental evidence to prove it. In 1842, Carl Vogt first discovered cell death in a metamorphic toad; however, it was not termed ‘cell death.’ Scientists discovered different cell death pathways only in the 20th century...

    Area of Science:

    • Palliative Care
    • Nursing Practice
    • Healthcare Strategy

    Background:

    • The End of Life Care Strategy was published one year ago.
    • It provides guidelines for best practices in end-of-life care.
    • This strategy aims to improve the quality of care for patients nearing the end of life.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the current implementation status of the End of Life Care Strategy by nurses.
    • To identify progress and remaining challenges in delivering the strategy.
    • To provide insights into the adoption of best practices in end-of-life care.

    Main Methods:

    • Qualitative or quantitative analysis of nursing practices related to the strategy.
    • Review of existing literature and guidelines on end-of-life care.
    • Surveys or interviews with healthcare professionals involved in end-of-life care.

    Main Results:

    • Nurses have begun to adopt and deliver aspects of the End of Life Care Strategy.
    • Initial implementation shows progress in integrating best practices.
    • There are identified areas where further development and support are required for full delivery.

    Conclusions:

    • The End of Life Care Strategy is in the early stages of implementation by nurses.
    • Continued commitment and resources are necessary to achieve the strategy's objectives.
    • Further research is recommended to optimize the delivery of end-of-life care.
