Description
The purpose of this study was to clarify the experiences of care workers in providing end-of-life care at geriatric health service facilities. Following interviews of 7 care workers, statements relating to endof-life care experience were extracted, categorized and analyzed. As care worker experiences in providing end-of-life care, 5 categories were identified:[wavering of emotions][, encouraging oneself][, wishing to have more empathetic connection with residents][, feeling reassured by the support of others]and[understanding what it is to support the life of someone who is dying]. It was found that while emotionally conflicted and wavering, care workers, in collaboration
with other healthcare professionals, tried to provide attentive and considerate care such that residents could live as comfortably as possible in their final days. The results of this study suggest that, in order for care workers to effectively display their professional abilities, it is necessary to create an environment in which they can provide end-of-life care without anxiety.
