Abstract:
Objective: To understand the experiences and perceptions of mental health providers about palliative care. Background: Little attention is paid to the experience of people with chronic persistent mental illness (CPMI) and life-threatening diseases and how their dying experience might differ from those without a CPMI. Methods: Interpretive description informed the project. Sixteen mental health care providers were interviewed using a semi-structured interview template. The interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed using a reflexive, inductive-deductive thematic approach, guided by Braun & Clarke's framework for thematic analysis. Results: Four themes were identified from the data: intersectionality, limited collaboration, misconceptions about palliative care, and relationships. Mental health providers identified gaps in their knowledge of palliative care practices along with their knowledge of death and dying.
