Readers learn the most effective interventions to ease the confusion and stress experienced by clients during these transitions. Clear explanations along with case studies and sample dialogues reveal the issues and challenges presented at each phase of the journey. Readers will also find:

ways to help alleviate anxiety, fear, fatigue/burnout, and feelings of denial and powerlessness



perspectives on body image, intimacy, and sexuality in people who are dying



sensitive explanations on navigating the three phases of grief



multicultural and interdenominational perspectives on death and dying



myriad ways to support staff in this highly challenging work





Nurses, physicians, counselors, social workers, allied health professionals, and volunteers can discover how dying, death, and bereavement can become a rich, complex journey of body, mind, and spirit for all involved.
