Abstract/OtherAbstract:
PURPOSE: This study aimed to assess the appropriateness of the International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP) Palliative Care for Dignified Dying catalogue for palliative nursing in the Philippines.
METHODS: The study recruited 230 nurses to complete the ICNP Dignified Dying survey. Participants rated ICNP nursing intervention items and identified additional interventions for promoting dignified dying.
RESULTS: All of the intervention items were scored on average as being at least 'slightly important'. The three top-ranked nursing intervention categories were providing social support, maintaining privacy boundaries, and relieving psychological distress.
CONCLUSIONS: The ICNP Palliative Care for Dignified Dying catalogue lists nursing interventions that are appropriate to promoting dignity at the end of life in the Philippines.
