The
Needs of the Dying : A Guide For Bringing Hope, Comfort, and Love to Life's
Final Chapter
by David Kessler
In gentle, compassionate language, The Needs of the Dying helps us
through the last chapter of our lives. The need to be treated as a living
human being, the need for hope, the need to express emotions, the need
to participate in care, the need for honesty, the need for spirituality,
and the need to be free of physical pain. Examining the physical and emotional
experiences of life-challenging illnesses, Kessler provides a vocabulary
for communication with doctors, with hospital staff, and with each other,
and-at a time when the right words are exceedingly difficult to find-he
helps readers find a way to say what is important.

Textbook
of Palliative Nursing
by Betty R. Ferrell, Nessa Coyle
Synopsis
A resourse for nurses working in the emerging field of palliative care.
Incorporating principles of palliative care throughout the course of a
chronic progressive incurable disease rather than only at the end of life,
the volume's scope is broad. The content, contributed by over 80 national
and international nursing experts, and divided into 16 parts and 61 chapters,
covers the world of palliative care nursing across all settings. The needs
of special populations are addressed, including paediatric patients, the
elderly, the cognitively impared, the poor and under-served, homeless,
and those with AIDS. Clinical assesment, symptom management, spirituality,
the meaning of hope at the end of life, issues of truth telling, ethics
and research are just some of the areas that are covered in the text.
