Purpose: The aim of this study was to identify hospital nurses¡¯ attitude toward care of the dying.
Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive survey was conducted. A convenient sample of 200 nurses from 5 hospitals was obtained. Participants completed Frommelt Attitude Toward Care of the Dying Scale, Form B. 163 of 200(return rate 81.5%) were returned, and 159 were analyzed.
Result: Over three quarter(78.6%) of participants had experience of care for dying patients, and 23.3% had taken end of life care training. Although nurses strongly believed that it is beneficial for the dying person to verbalize his/her
feeling(4.22¡¾.76), they reported relatively negative attitude in talking about impending death with the dying patients(3.49¡¾.97) and being with the crying terminally ill person(2.96¡¾.99).
Conclusion: The result of this study implied that there is a gap between what nurses¡¯ knowing and how nurses¡¯ feeling in caring for the dying. Therefore, end of life care training which designed to improve coping skills with challenging situations in care of the dying needs to be developed.
