Culturally appropriate and respectful end-of-life care for patients and their families in the intensive care unit: A mixed-method study
Critical care nurses' comfort and capabilities with end-of-life care and perceptions of the barriers are critical to understand because end-of-life care is about more than clinical care. Supporting nurses to build their understanding and comfort with providing care that aligns with cultural and religious needs and preferences, and optimising access to professional interpreters, is imperative.
