Aim:
This study aimed to describe patients, relatives and nurses' experiences of specialised palliative home care.
Design:
Integrated literature review.
Methods:
The review was performed using the PRISMA 2020 Statement. The searches were conducted in Cinahl, PubMed and Scopus.

Eighteen articles were selected. An overall theme 'co-creation for personalised home care' emerged, based on three categories: 'Safe and secure care', 'Care based on wishes and needs' and 'Relatives' caring role'. Patients, relatives and nurses' experiences showed that co-creation was an important strategy for achieving goals and enabling patients to remain at home despite illness and limited life expectancy.
Conclusion:
Co-creation becomes a prerequisite for personalised home care and enabled through collaboration and learning between patients, relatives and nurses.
Patient Or Public Contribution:
This article is an overview of how patients, relatives and nurses experience care at home, supported by a specialised palliative care unit, and the result showed that co-creation enables personalised care.
