Abstract
Communication with dying patients and families is mainly regarded as complex and has been described as similar to addressing “the elephant in the room” (1). However, nurses' delivery of effective and caring communication is deemed essential to establishing therapeutic alliances with families, providing families with accurate and consistent information about the patient’s diagnosis and treatment, and empowering families to make informed decisions (2).
