The most current update on the special concerns of nurses caring for hospice and terminally ill patients and dealing with their families, the major topics in this volume have practical applicability in many health care settings.

A unique volume reflecting the state of the art in hospice nursing, Nursing in Hospice and Terminal Care addresses the special concerns of nurses--the primary professional caregivers in a hospice--in caring for terminally ill patients and in comforting their families. Experts highlight the major components of hospice nursing and address the enormous need for research that will help hospice nurses improve the quality of nursing care they are able to provide. Each valuable chapter is presented from a scientific base and offers practical applicability to nursing in various health care settings.
