Loss is something that we all face in our daily lives be it losing a loved one or assets or a job, the important thing is being able to cope rather than avoiding it.
The nurses need to approach grief and dying of patients and relatives holistically and do not avoid the subject as the patient is already devastated with the news of dying. Encourage the family members and allow them to be at the patients bedside during this time to allow them to say their final goodbyes.
