在关于老年人及其家人希望得到的临终关怀以及医院临终阶段护士提供援助的现状的研究中披露了以下情况。当老年人健康时，只有不到一半的人与配偶谈论自己的死亡，三分之一的人与子女谈论自己的死亡。然而，为他们的死亡做的准备比谈话要少。当老人被送进医院时，15%的人说他们想死在哪里，怎么死。而在老年人想要死在自己家里的家庭中，想要在家里照顾他们的家庭比例更高。家人们希望老人们能自然地、完全地平静地死去。他们想提供的援助也被提取出来。护士对医院临终老人的帮助主要集中在身体方面，对家属的精神帮助和家庭帮助较少。有70%的患者有护理亲人的经历。有60%的孩子得到了充分的护理。至于护理它，不满是以下几点。至于它，在医生和护士的对应情况下，它不能完全照顾到它，因为没有将它添加到人的意图中。由此可见，老年人应该从他们健康的时候开始为自己的死亡做准备，并通过对话与家人分享。而参与医疗护理的人则应顺应他们的要求，促进其家人采取积极的情感护理，并与家人一起在临终阶段照顾他们，为老年人及其家人提供理想的临终关怀。

When the olds are healthy, less than a half of them talk about their death with their spouses, and a third of them with their children. However preparations for their death represent lower than conversation.2. When the olds are admitted to hospitals, 15% of them tell where and how they want to die. And among the families when the olds want to die in their own houses, the parcentage of the families who want to care them at home is higher. Families hope the olds die naturally and peace fully. Assistance which they want to render is also extracted.3. Assistance which nurses give to the olds at terminal stages at hospitals is centerd on physical one, and spiritual assistance or assistance to their families is less.4. The experience of nursing a familiar person was in 70%. It was 60% that it was fully nursed. As for nursing it, discontent was the following point. As for it, it was in such cases as doctor's and nurse's correspomdence that it couldn't care for it fully as for not adding it to the person's intention.From the above, it is concluded that the olds should prepare for their death from the time they are healthy, and share with their families through conversation.
