Associated Factors of Psychological Distress among Japanese NICU Nurses in Supporting Bereaved Families Who Have Lost Children.

CONCLUSION: Clarifying the coping methods for psychological distress in supporting bereaved families may be necessary, and nurses need to identify appropriate coping methods. In nursing education, information on psychological distress related to children's deaths and bereavement care should be conveyed from the early stage and nurses must obtain preliminary knowledge. The creation of a bereavement follow-up system is recommended. PMID: 30282893 [PubMed - in process]
