The objective of this project was to provide ICU nurses with a comprehensive awareness of physical, emotional, and spiritual EOL care issues of patients and their families in order to be better equipped to handle EOL care.

Résumé :

Palliative health care is offered to any patient experiencing a life limiting or life changing illness. The palliative approach includes goals of care, expert symptom management, and advance care planning in order to reduce patient suffering. Complex care can be provided by palliative care specialists while primary palliative care can be given by educated staff nurses. However, according to the literature, intensive care unit (ICU) nurses have demonstrated a lack of knowledge in the provision of primary care as well as experiencing moral distress from that lack of knowledge.

Résumé :

Purpose: The purpose of this project was to conduct an educational workshop among ICU nurses working in rural areas, to reduce risk of compassion fatigue. Background: Compassion fatigue is a job-related hazard unique to professionals in caring professions such as nursing. Rural ICU nurses represent a population that may encounter unique triggers for the risk of compassion fatigue due to professional isolation, less resources and more risk of knowing the patient as a community member. A review of literature reveals limited research related to compassion fatigue development in rural ICU nurses

Post-operative delirium is a debilitating and costly adverse event that has detrimental effects on patients’ recovery and complicates nursing care. Its numerous risk factors make the disorder seem unavoidable and unpreventable. Although pre-operative and intra-operative risk factors for delirium may not be controllable, the post-operative risk factors directly related to nursing practice are directly controllable. Practices to control pain through analgesia and sedation administration given at nurses’ prerogative may be associated with the onset of delirium in the immediate post-operative per
