概要 The purpose of this study was to explore the current status of educational pamphlets for families of terminally ill patients. We sent out the questionnaire to 2000 visiting nursing station directors in Japan, and obtained responses from 431 (response rate: 21.6%). Fifty-two percent of the directors (n=221) used the pamphlets. Most directors who used pamphlets recognized their usefulness for families, including that they helped families understand the patient’s present condition, care for the patient, and understand the dying process. It is possible that pamphlet use may increase if we can elucidate why some directors do not find timing to be an issue.
