    Author: Forest PK.
    Journal: Urol Nurs; 2004 Aug; 24(4):270-4, 279; quiz 280. PubMed ID: 15446377.
    Abstract:
    Competent and compassionate end-of-life care is the right of everyone. Nursing and the health care profession are obligated to meet this need for their patients and provide crucial information and support. Continued efforts must be made to increase our knowledge about the normal dying process, symptom management, and the role of the interdisciplinary team in supporting patients in their final wishes for a "good death".
