Every Dying Patient Should Experience a Peaceful Death: A Mixed-Methods Approach to Assessing the Benefits of Palliative Care Training on Nursing Practice.

Providing appropriate end-of-life care is not only a critical part of palliative care but a basic human right. Nurses are well positioned to perform this role; however, the delivery of end-of-life care is difficult. The purpose of this project was to prepare nurses to meet the challenges associated with end-of-life care and to optimize the opportunity for a peaceful death.
