Description
Summary:The objective was to identify evidences of comprehensive care in the professional practice of the nursing staff in the context of oncology palliative care. In this descriptive, qualitative study, seven nurses and four nursing technicians were interviewed. Thematic analysis resulted two thematic units: Evidences of comprehensive care in the practice of the nursing professionals and teamwork as the premise of comprehensive care. The nursing staff's actions are based on communication, converging efforts, and forming a network with other professionals to meet the multiple needs of the individuals and their families in order to offer comfort and quality of life.
