Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We performed surveys of home-visiting nursing institutions, and conducted retrospective case studies to obtain basic findings that can be linked with the promotion of support for bereaved family members (grief care) who experienced the death of home care patient. Our results suggested the following: (1) visits to bereaved family members is a key for grief care within home care, (2) grief care has value for both sides, bereaved family members and visiting home care institutions, (3) visits to the bereaved function as care assessment opportunities, and (4) reflection of the will (opinions) of family members within the terminal care nursing process is linked with the adaptation of the said family after the death of their loved one. Further research on effective grief-care processes is needed to promote continuity within end-of-life family care.
