“…Many of the nurses who stated that communication is both necessary and affects the nursing relationship also said that they could not establish therapeutic communication and that they only used communication to give information. It is known that nurses cannot adequately communicate with patients and many of them have problems communicating with patients and take the wrong approach (26). Accordingly, it can be said that the nurses participating in the study are aware of the importance of communication as it affects the nursing relationship, but they do not know how to communicate.…”

“…Better communication among nurses, doctors, and families was the most frequent remark to build a supportive environment for end of life communication (14). Fifth, nurses' professional and ethical sensitivity in dealing with patients' families at the end of life are needed to enhance effective communication in providing quality care to families (10).…”

“…Such challenges create frustrations and feelings of unpreparedness among the nurses and feel constrained. Nurses also described fatigue, staff shortages, or work pressures as justifying their critical behaviours in confronting the families (10). These challenges suggest several opportunities for nursing practice.…”

Communication with dying patients and families is mainly regarded as complex and has been described as similar to addressing “the elephant in the room” (1). However, nurses' delivery of effective and caring communication is deemed essential to establishing therapeutic alliances with families, providing families with accurate and consistent information about the patient’s diagnosis and treatment, and empowering families to make informed decisions (2).

Aim: This qualitative study aimed to explore nurses’ perspectives regarding the challenges of providing perinatal/neonatal end-of-life care in a regional hospital. Methods: This exploratory qualitative study was conducted with 20 nurses working in Turkey. Study data were collected through in-depth and semi-structured individual interviews. The interviews were then submitted to thematic analysis. Results: Three themes emerged from analyses of the interviews: (1) inadequate support for delivery of palliative care, (2) perceptions of family readiness, and (3) providing information/education to the family. The most prominent difficulties experienced by nurses were inadequacy of unit and equipment and lack of trained personnel. Another important issue that stood out was families’ not accepting the end-of-life care decision for the fetus or the neonate and their having unrealistic expectations. Conclusion: Study results have provided important considerations for regional isolated neonatal and perinatal units, and they will be used to inform clinical practice improvements, staff education support, policies/procedures, family support, and further research relating to end-of-life care provision for the most vulnerable babies and their families.
