Abstract:
This article reported hospice care for a patient with pancreatic cancer in the end-of-life stage. We relieved the patient's pain and other painful symptoms,provided psy-chological counseling and support,respected the patient's wishes and autonomy,and guided family members to ef-fectively participate in end-of-life care. Through the above interventions,we attained the goal that the patient passed away peacefully and their caregivers lived without regrets.
