Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to understand terminal cancer patient's experiences of home-based hospice care. Methods: The data were collected from July 2011 through September 2010. Data were collected from 10 terminal cancer patients who received home-based hospice care services and by using in-depth interview. The data were analyzed using Colaizzi's phenomenological method. Results: Data were classified by 25 themes comprising 14 theme clusters and five categories. The five categories were 'life quality deterioration', 'appreciation', 'acceptance of the rest of their lives', 'Prepared for death with religion', 'negative coping'. Conclusion: Systematic hospice care should be provided to understand life experience of patients with terminal cancer who receive home-based hospice care, to help them overcome negative experiences and grow a positive perspective.

목적: 본 연구의 목적은 말기암환자로서 가정호스피스 돌봄을 받고 있는 대상자의 삶의 경험에서 얻어지는 현상을 이해하고 경험의 본질을 이해하고자 함이다. 방법: 가정호스피스 돌봄을 받고 있는 말기암환자 10명으로부터 심층면담을 통해 자료를 수집하였고 Colaizzi의 현상학적 방법을 사용하여 분석하였다. 결과: 의미 있는 진술에서 구성된 의미가 도출되고, 구성된 의미에서 주제 및 주제모음을 확인하여 범주화 한 결과, '삶의 질 저하', '남은 삶의 수용', '신앙으로 준비된 죽음', '고마움', '부정적 대처'의 범주가 도출되었다. 결론: 가정호스피스 돌봄을 받고 있는 말기암환자들의 삶의 경험을 이해하고, 호스피스 간호를 통해 대상자가 부정적인 삶의 경험을 극복하고, 긍정적인 삶의 경험을 할 수 있도록 체계화된 호스피스 간호의 제공이 필요하다.
