“…extend the patient's agony if there is no possibility of healing. Thus, death and suffering would be extended, and not the patient's life (6,9,12,22) . The theoretical model resulting from the study points outs that the nursing technician will only develop coping strategies for the end-of-life care when interpreting death as therapeutic, as a necessary closure for terminal patients that do not have chance of survival.…”
