Abstract

The last hours of living can be one of the most important times in the life of any patient and his/her family. With appropriate preparation and careful management of the process by skilled clinicians, dying and death can be a comfortable and even rewarding experience for everyone involved. After death, careful attention to the grief of survivors can help them cope with their loss and rebuild their lives.
