| Description | This cluster of papers revolves around the concept of Dignity Therapy, a novel psychotherapeutic intervention primarily focused on patients near the end of life in palliative care. The papers explore various aspects of preserving patient dignity, psychological distress, autonomy, and privacy in healthcare settings, with a particular emphasis on elderly care and human rights. They also discuss the impact of Dignity Therapy on the quality of life and well-being of terminally ill patients. |
