Publication Relationship between death anxiety of Turkish nurses and their attitudes toward the dying patients(Sage Publications, 2019-12-19) Pehlivan, Seda; Lafçi, Diğdem; Vatansever, Nursel; Yıldız, Ebru; PEHLİVAN, SEDA; VATANSEVER, NURSEL; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi/İç Hastalıkları Hemşireliği Anabilim Dalı; 0000-0002-1670-0672; AAI-9108-2021; B-5037-2017This study aims to investigate the relationship between death anxiety of the Turkish nurses and their attitudes toward the dying patient. This study involved 203 nurses who were working at a university hospital. The data were collected using "Nurse Information Form" (which was prepared by the authors of this research), "Thorson-Powell Death Anxiety Scale," and "Attitude Scale about Euthanasia, Death, and Dying Patient." There was a positive correlation between death anxiety and dying patient avoidance behavior and euthanasia score (p < .05). The findings showed that nurses, death anxiety, and death scores were high in the loss of a close relatives (p < .05). Our findings suggest that the situation of the dying patients and their families and also nurses should be improved. Thus, special psychological education/training should be given to the nurses to deal with death anxiety and their attitude to the dying patient.
