abstract: Community nurses, many of them inexperienced, face highly emotional situations when caring for dying patients at home, particularly when their wishes are at odds with family members'. The winning team of a one-off award from the Queen's Nursing Institute has developed a training course that increases nurses' confidence in their ability to manage sensitive discussions.
