Voices of Care: Nurses' Perspectives on End-of-Life Care for Black/African American Patients.

This qualitative study examines the distinct experiences of Black/African American nurses in providing end-of-life care to patients of the same racial background and their families. It fills a significant gap in existing research by focusing on the lived experiences and perceptions of Black/African American nurses, gathered through semistructured interviews. Using phenomenological analysis with Colaizzi's method, the study identified principal themes such as racial and ethnic disparities in treatment, challenges in pain management, the need for cultural sensitivity, and the significant influence of historical Black/African American patients' mistrust in health care interactions.
