Özet

Terminal dönem kanser hastalarının ölüme huzur ve saygınlık içinde ulaşması sürecinde hasta ve hasta yakınlarının yapacağı ölüm yeri tercihi, ölüm zamanındaki yaşam kalitesini hatta ölümün kalitesini geliştirmesi açısından önemlidir. Gözden geçirme niteliğindeki bu çalışmada, terminal dönemdeki kanser hastalarının ölüm yeri tercihlerinin neler olabileceği ve bu tercihlere etkide bulunan bazı faktörler tartışıldı. Çalışmanın ülkemizde hospis, evde bakım gibi yeni ve önemli hizmet modellerinin oluşturulması sürecinde sağlık politikacı ve uygulayıcılarına ayrıca hastanın yaşam kalitesini yükseltmeyi amaçlayan bakım planlarını hazırlayan palyatif bakım ekibine ve hasta yakınlarına katkı getireceği düşünülmektedir.
