The aim of this paper was to discuss the care experience of an elderly patient with terminal colon cancer, who chose to withdraw life-sustaining treatment and die naturally. The author is a shared care nurse in a hospice who took care of the patient from May 23 to June 3, 2017. Gordon’s 11 Functional Health Patterns was used for evaluation and information was collected through direct care, physical assessment, conversations, and medical records. The patient was confirmed to have impaired comfort, and his family members experienced anxiety and anticipatory grief. During care, treatments like readjusting pain-killers, lying comfortably, hot compress, essential oil, and acupoint massage were administered to alleviate the patient’s discomfort. Collaboration with the patient’s original medical team and family meeting were used to provide family members with information on care before, during, and after withdrawal of the life-sustaining treatment, and consensus on a medical decision was reached to assist the patient in withdrawing the life-sustaining treatment and obtaining subsequent appropriate care. The family members were guided on abdominal deep breathing exercises and relaxation methods before sleeping to alleviate their feelings of anxiety and uneasiness. In addition, active companionship and listening was used to guide family members to express their feelings; discuss the meaning of the patient’s suffering; complete the expression of love, apology, gratitude, and farewell; and funeral preparations, and assisting the family members in transitioning through the grief process. The social worker guided the family members in stress management techniques and strengthening support systems and assisted them in improving their coping ability in the face of difficult decisions and the stress of death. With the joint care efforts of the entire team, the patient was allowed to die with dignity and peace, and the family members comfortably accompanied the patient in his last stage of life. The author hoped that this nursing experience can be used as a reference for care by clinical nursing staff. (Cheng Ching Medical Journal 2019; 15(2): 57-65)
