“A dignified and peaceful death”: Multidimensional perspectives from patients, caregivers and physicians in Mexican palliative care”
A Dignified and Peaceful Death begins when individuals become aware of their mortality and encompasses cultural, emotional, and structural elements that transcend physical death. This perspective suggests that end-of-life care should respond not only to biomedical needs but also to broader existential and relational dimensions that shape patient and family experiences in resource-limited settings.
