Purpose: Death is not an option but a necessity in our life. However, there is little understanding of what a good death means. This study was conducted to analyze the concept of a good death by exploring attributes, antecedents, consequences and empirical criteria for a good death in literatures.
Method : Reviewed materials were collected by searching for web cites such as PubMed, National Library of Korea, National Assembly Library. Walker and Avant’s method(2004) was used for this concept analysis.
Results : The findings showed that a good death includes seven attributes: dignity (personal respect and privacy), self-control (the right of choice, independence, clear consciousness), comfort (physical, psychological, spiritual). optimal relationships (supportive environment, proper care, restoration of relationships), appropriateness (sequence and proper age of death), preparation for death (completing unsettled tasks, leaving a legacy, positive attitude toward life, awareness and acceptance of death) and minimizing burden.
Conclusion : This results will provide health professionals and people with a preliminary understandings of a good death. In addition, there is the need for further study to develop objective measurement of a good death and effective nursing intervention for the dying.
