Abstract
The study had as the general objective to analyze the care provided by the nursing team to the individual in palliative care in oncology and the specific objective to identify the challenges in nursing care for cancer patients in palliative care and to discuss nursing care for cancer patients in palliative care with emphasis on the challenges. This is an integrative literature review study, search performed in the LILACS database (Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences), SCIELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online), and BDENF (Nursing Database) , in May and June 2021. We concluded that cancer patients in palliative care need assistance that makes this moment less painful, given the situation that there is no longer any possibility of cure. Thus, nursing faces several challenges to provide this assistance, making the process of application of assistance difficult.
