, Abstract: This research aims to identify key issues related to the interpersonal relationship between
nurses, family members, and patients. One of the greatest nursing challenges is staying vigilant towards
someone becoming less attentive with time. This creates an imbalance in the relationship. More is given
than can be returned. The present is not the here, and now; it plays in the past or a fictional dream
perception. However, this should not result in family members disconnecting from the loved one, even
with advanced dementia. Babies and toddlers themselves cannot speak yet can understand a lot – which
doesn't prevent us from communicating with them all the time. Instead, caring relatives are slowly
distancing themselves from the diagnosed individual. Leaving a family member because of the diagnosis is
not the right way to support their loved ones. Particularly focusing on communicational obstacles
between the patient and the nurse or family caregiver. The feeling of belonging and emotional exchange
is immensely important for their last chapter of life.
