Hospice and Palliative Nursing plays a pivotal role in providing compassionate care to individuals with serious, life-limiting illnesses. Nurses in this field are specially trained to manage pain, symptoms, and psychological stress while improving the quality of life for patients and their families. Research in this domain focuses on the best practices for symptom management, the impact of end-of-life care on patient well-being, and the importance of emotional and spiritual support. Effective communication, individualized care plans, and family involvement are key components of hospice and palliative care nursing, allowing for a dignified and respectful approach to end-of-life care.
