Engaging in Action Research with Nurses: Overcoming Challenges and Gaining Positive Insights into End-of-Life Care.

The aim of this study was to qualitatively describe, from a practitioner's perspective, the process by which nurses struggle to support a patient with end-of-life cancer with frequent nurse calls and gain positive insights through two methodologies: AR and the case study method. The participants were four ward nurses who supported a patient receiving end-of-life cancer in his 80s. The participants engaged in monthly group work and practical training sessions, which included facilitators, to reflect on and develop care plans.
