Concept of the Week #3:Death – ‘Good Death’ & Nursing
Hannah Wood
Personally, I think that people deserve a “good” and comfortable passing. Ideally for my own
future death I hope to be around loved ones and sedated. When I say sedated, I mean
comfortable and painless. I am terrified of death and often think about it. How will I die? What
happens after? What will I think about as I’m taking my last breath? I won’t spiral too much on
that side of the topic. I think a “good” death is subjective to each person and what they want
when they pass. Some have religious beliefs and practices they want performed. Classifying any
death as a “good” death can be inappropriate and seen as rude but when a healthcare worker
has seen people experience horrible and painful deaths, some can be seen as better ways to
pass. In regard to palliative care, the goal is to make the patient as comfortable as possible and
support the family at the bedside.
