Slide 1:

Introduction

Grief is a process that needs to be expressed and is a natural response to losing a loved one. Grieving is the complete emotional process of accepting a loss, and it may take a while. The process involves a wide range of emotions, behaviors, and expressions, all of which help a person cope with the death of a loved one. Anyone can go through the process of normal mourning, but no one does so in the same way because each loss is different and each person's grief manifests and feels differently. It's important to give people who have lost a loved one the time and space they need to express their sorrow because grieving is difficult.

Information about the bereavement process

Denial and isolation Denial and isolation may start before the loss if the death of a loved one is anticipated. It might also begin soon after or immediately following a loss. It could last anywhere between a few hours and several days or weeks. Early mourning is often accompanied by feelings of fear, shock, or numbness.

Anger It happens when initial feelings of happiness and joy are replaced by irritation and anxiety. It may last for several days, weeks, or months. During this phase, it's normal to feel angry, lonely, or uncertain. It might be when you're feeling the most intense and terrible loss-related emotions.

The third stage, bargaining, involves the individual hoping to steer clear of a saddening situation. A changed way of life is typically exchanged for a longer life. Those who have gone through less traumatic experiences might be able to negotiate or find a middle ground.

Depression is the fourth stage, where the person becomes hopeless upon realizing their mortality. In this state, the person may withdraw, decline invitations, and spend a lot of time moping and grumpy.

Acceptance: At this point, people come to terms with their own mortality as well as the mortality of a loved one or some other dreadful event. This stage, which is marked by a calm, retrospective perspective for the person and a stable emotional state, may be reached by people who are dying before the survivors.

Considerations for the preparation of the final passage

When grieving, families should be by the victims' sides Talking about their emotions and concerns with loved ones, friends, and caregivers can be reassuring for many cancer patients.

Legal, financial, and personal matters as well as the victim's personal affairs should be in order. Victims should consider how they want to be cared for in their final moments. They should communicate their wishes to their family and the medical staff.

Completing incomplete tasks Families may have goals for what they want to accomplish in their remaining time as they approach death. Your life has a purpose and fulfillment because of these responsibilities.

Everyone should call for better support during death. The most important aspect of family care is likely to be giving the dying person the best care possible. This is due to the fact that families are much more at ease if they feel that their loved one has received quality care.

Slide 5

Resources for the family, as well as rationale items

Cancer Care Giving provides details on the activities of caregivers and the significance of their contribution to the cancer patient's experience.

Communication: means of improving how thoughts and feelings about cancer are expressed to the patient and the cancer care team.

Self-care for caregivers: It offers advice on making healthy lifestyle decisions and provides rules to support eating right and exercising.

Cancer Treatment: It details the side effects of radiation, chemotherapy, and surgery.

Patient nutrition: Patients are given a well-planned, healthy diet during and after treatment to help them be more resilient.

Slide 6

Resources for the family, as well as rationale items

Cancer information: It covers the fundamentals of what cancer is, how it arises, common misconceptions about it, its treatment, and the potential psychological and physical effects on patients.

Coping - This section discusses the most prevalent psychosocial issues related to cancer and how caregivers can help patients deal with them.

Slide 7

Internal/informal support teams' function

The informal caregiver is forced to perform a variety of tasks and assume responsibility for care. In many cases, the family is expected to provide end-of-life care despite lacking the necessary training or qualifications.

It has been shown that taking care of older people who are dependent on you requires physical effort, help from others, mental control, and managing multiple tasks at once.

Throughout the course of their illness, cancer patients receive critical support from informal caregivers. By accompanying the patient during the diagnostic process, these people offer both practical assistance and psychological support for coping with uncertainty and dread.

Slide 8

Internal/informal support teams' function

Improved communication, coordination, and decision-making among healthcare professionals are the main objectives of multidisciplinary teams (MDTs).

The cancer survival rate is significantly increased by MDC compared to what would be anticipated in the absence of MDC.

Doctors and nurses have a great opportunity to learn about particular cases at the circle meetings.

Team meetings also facilitate communication and information sharing among participants, particularly between hospital-based specialists and primary care providers, which enhances referral and follow-up care pathways.

Slide 9

Conclusion

Grief is a process that needs to be expressed and is a natural response to losing a loved one.

A person can cope with the loss of a loved one through a variety of emotions, actions, and expressions that are all part of the process.

The grieving process entails denial, isolation, anger, bartering, depression, and acceptance.

In addition to keeping the victim's legal, financial, and personal affairs in order, families should keep the victim close to them during this difficult time. Stress, sadness, anxiety, and physical and mental exhaustion can all be side effects of providing care for a sick person. Caretakers must therefore take good care of their own bodies, minds, and spirits.

Slide 10

Conclusion

The unpaid caregiver is compelled to perform a variety of tasks and assume caregiving duties.

Throughout the course of their illness, informal caregivers offer cancer patients crucial support.

Improved communication, coordination, and decision-making among healthcare professionals are the main objectives of multidisciplinary teams (MDTs).

It's crucial to remember that when cancer patients are diagnosed, healthcare professionals do not inform them about social support groups.
