Introduction: In order for us to create a society where we live good lives until death, we must dare to talk about the end of life. Relatives are an important part of the palliative care and it is important that they get support for managing the situation and their sorrow The Aim of this study was to investigate professionals’ dialogue with relatives of patients who are in palliative care.

Abstract:
Communication concerning the care one wishes to receive at the end of life (EOL) is central to ensuring that wishes are honored. Many studies have examined doctor-patient or doctor-family EOL communication. However, relatively few studies have focused on the occurrence of EOL care discussions among family members. This is an important topic, as research suggests that advance directives (ADs) are ineffective if patients have not involved surrogate decision-makers, most of whom are family members. This study examined EOL care discussions among family members. It used quantitative and qualitative
