“…In Korea, talking about clients' living will is not that culturally easy issue even with hospice clients, but offering a private room to talk about client's living will is needed. Anttonen, Nikkonen, and Tarja suggested that privacy, time spent together, being present at the time of death created a feeling of caring environment and more time for farewells after death is important for the quality of hospice care [31]. Based on the findings, being present with the client but also providing privacy is needed.…”

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the hospice care compliance of nurses working at a hospice ward and provide meaningful data to improve the hospice care compliances. Methods: Participants included 104 nurses working at the hospice ward of the hospital located at P and D cities. Data was collected from February to March 2012. The level of hospice care compliance was measured using Bae (2000)'s questionnaires. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA and Scheffè test using SPSS/WIN 18.0 program. Results: The level of hospice care compliance in hospice nurses working at a hospice ward was high (3.25 out of 4). In hospice care compliance, the physical area was highest, followed by the emotional, spiritual, and social areas. Hospice care compliance was significantly different according to age, marital status, education, religion, importance of religion, job position, job satisfaction and life satisfaction. Hospice care compliance was also significantly different according to the nurses' experience of death, having license or certification related to hospice care and experiences related to clients' death. Conclusions: The findings of this study showed that the level of hospice care compliance was high and the hospice care compliance in South Korea was primarily focused on physical care. Considering that spiritual needs are important needs in hospice clients, hospice nurses need to focus on those aspects more. To improve the quality of hospice care compliance in the hospice nurses, programs to increase hospice nurses' job and life satisfaction are needed.

“…Jotkut toivat esille, että heidän läheisilleen hoitajat ovat olleet ystävällisiä, ammattitaitoisia ja välittäviä keskustelijoita. Tämä on linjassa aiemman tutkimuksen kanssa, jonka mukaan suomalaisissa saattohoitoon erikoistuneissa yksiköissä olleiden potilaiden omaiset kokevat läheistensä saaneen hyvää hoivaa ja saattohoitokodin tarjonneen turvallisen ja välittävän ympäristön (Anttonen, Nikkonen, ja Kvist 2011).…”

Ihmisten asenteet ja mielikuvat saattohoidosta vaikuttavat siihen, millaisia elämän loppuvaiheen hoitovaihtoehtoja he toivovat itselleen tai läheisilleen. Mediaesitykset, kuten dokumenttielokuvat, muokkaavat omalta osaltaan näitä mielikuvia. Marikan kuolema (2021) on tuore kotimainen dokumenttielokuva, jossa on kuvattu kuolevan ihmisen viimeisiä kuukausia saattohoitokodissa. Vaikka saattohoitoprosessit eivät ole elokuvan merkittävin teema, siihen liittyvät kuvaukset tarjoavat katsojilleen tarttumapintaa ymmärtää saattohoitoa ja heijastaa elokuvaan omia asenteitaan elämän loppuvaiheen hoidosta.Tutkin saattohoitoon liittyviä mielikuvia laadullisen vastaanottotutkimuksen keinoin. Aineistona toimivat elokuvan pohjalta tehdyt ryhmähaastattelut (48 osallistujaa) ja Vauva.fi-sivustolla käyty verkkokeskustelu (493 viestiä). Aineistosta paljastui, että saattohoidon kokonaisvaltaisuuteen ja moniammatillisuuteen liittyy väärinymmärryksiä saattohoidon merkitessä monelle kuolemista piilossa ja pois muiden tieltä. Keskustelijat myös kritisoivat, ettei suomalaisessa saattohoidossa osata kohdata kuolevaa ja hänen läheisiään yksilöinä, vaan hoidettavina potilaina ja lääketieteellisenä ongelmana.Saattohoitoon liittyi siten eettisiä kysymyksiä ja pelon tunteita. Ahdistus nousi yhtä lailla siitä, miten meistä kukin pystyy kohtamaan kuolevaisuutta, ja siitä, pystyykö suomalainen yhteiskunta tarjoamaan arvokasta kuolemaa kansalaisilleen. Marikan kuolema -dokumenttielokuvan vastaanotossa korostuivat negatiiviset mielikuvat suomalaisesta saattohoidosta.Avainsanat: saattohoito, kuolema, dokumenttielokuvat, välittäminen, etiikka, vastaanottotutkimusAudience’s Perception of Finnish Hospice Care in the Documentary Film Marika’s PassingPeople’s attitudes and images of hospice care affect what end-of-life care options they wish for themselves or their loved ones. Media presentations, such as documentary films, shape these images. Marika’s Passing (2021) is a recent Finnish documentary film that depicts the last months of a dying person in a hospice home. Although hospice care is not a significant theme of the film, the related descriptions offer viewers potential to understand hospice care and reflect their own attitudes about end-of-life care.I study Finnish audience’s perceptions of hospice care using qualitative reception research. The data includes focus group interviews (48 participants) and an online discussion on the Vauva.fi website (493 messages). The data reveales that there are misunderstandings associated with hospice care’s comprehensiveness and multi-professionalism when some viewers see hospice care as a result of taboo death where death is hidden from the public view. The discussants also criticized that Finnish hospice care does not know how to face the dying people as individuals.Thus, dying people are treated as patients and as medical problems, and hospice care became associated with fear and anxiety over the provided care. Audience’s anxiety focused on how each of us is able to face mortality and whether Finnish society is able to offer a dignified death to its citizens. In the reception of the documentary film Marika’s Passing, the viewers expressed rather negative images of hospice care in Finland.Keywords: hospice, palliative care, death, documentary films, care, ethics, reception, reception studies
