A beginning list of seven critical nursing behaviors in care for the dying was identified in a qualitative study. Ten experienced palliative care nurses and 10 nurse educators were asked to describe situations in which a student or graduate nurse had displayed very positive or very negative attitudes to care for the dying. Behaviors identified after content analysis of transcribed interviews were responding during death scene, providing comfort, responding to anger, enhancing personal growth, responding to colleagues, enhancing quality of life during dying, and responding to the family. Three of these behaviors were not well described in the nursing literature.
