Özet
This study aimed to examine the perception of a good death and the level of perceived stress in relatives of palliative care patients. Relatives of 110 patients hospitalized in a palliative care center constituted the research sample. A personal information form, the Good Death Scale, and the Perceived Stress Scale were used for data collection. The patients' relatives defined good death as being with family members and living this process without suffering. The mean total Good Death Scale score of the relatives of palliative care patients was 54.86 +/- 7.78, and their mean total Perceived Stress Scale score was 31.11 +/- 10.10. These findings showed that patients' relatives had high perceptions of good death and that their stress levels were above average. To expand the scope of nursing care, it is important to know how patients' relatives are affected by this process. It is recommended that more studies be conducted on this subject.
