| dc.description.abstract | the formal and informal supports available to families, staff, and residents of long-term
care facilities, along with how death was handled, were examined. with the assistance
of long-term care staff, a survey was developed to gather this information. the results
indicated that a variety of formal and informal resources were used by the 3 groups to
cope with bereavement. nurses in direct care of dying residents carried the
responsibility of notifying the family, staff, and other residents of the impending and
subsequent death of a resident. the average turn-around time to admit a new resident
was 48 hours. the findings are consistent with the previous literature, and provide a
basis on which standards of practice for bereavement can be developed. | |
