Description:
The first phase included a qualitative study. We conducted a qualitative phenomenological
method to better explicate and understand palliative care nurses' emotional labor
experiences, as well as the dilemmas and solutions they encounter when physical, mental,
and emotional labor intertwine at work. In the early stage, we compiled an interview
outline by a written qualitative meta-analysis about the emotional labor, and added the
contents in the interview outline according to the actual situation in the later
interview process.

hospice care nurses
Summary:
Hospice care is a nurse-led multidisciplinary team care that provides physical, mental,
and social care to end-of-life patients. According to the WHO, the role of hospice nurses
is addressing suffering involves taking care of issues beyond physical symptoms, to
support patients and their caregivers. Different from other disease care, hospice nurses
face end-of-life patients and their families. As the primary nursing contact of a dying
family, hospice nurses have a more intense and complex emotional experience. In China,
with the improvement of human rights protection awareness, the nurse-patient relationship
is particularly important, and the social requirements for nursing workers are also
getting higher and higher. In addition, hospice nurses not only provide physical and
psychological care to patients, but also provide comprehensive care to families of
end-of-life patients. It is not just the mental work of learning expertise and dealing
with emergency situations, and the physical labor of caring for large numbers of
patients; but also requires emotional labor that has rarely been recognized before. When
facing end-of-life patients and their families, it is particularly important to express
appropriate emotions and pay emotional labor.
