In this volume the personal journey of why a nurse chose to leave
Acute Care nursing to be involved in Palliative Care nursing
connect with a broader culture of Palliative Care nursing by
interviewing those who chose palliative care nursing and examine
the reasons for changes in careers from acute, curing based,
nursing to Palliative Caring for those in end of life nursing. The
longest section of the study travels the world of Palliative
nursing with participant observers. It is about the actively
working nurse and includes extensive analytical discussion of an
attempt to understand the sense of professional change, and the
significance of beliefs for the reasoning behind vocational
transformation. The second section examines the interviews, the
third addresses the heart of the research question and examines
nursing moving from a curing model to a caring only approach when
death of the patient is inevitable. The volume ends with a letter
written by the author to her sons asking them to be there when her
time comes at the end of life through a life limiting illness and
requests her sons and the Palliative Care professionals observe her
final wishes.
