Nurses' responsibilities for administering medication towards the end of life

Patients who are nearing the end of their life frequently take numerous drugs. Physicians often are unaware of the significance of assessing a patient's medication's usefulness near the end of their life. The purpose of this study is to learn more about how patients, unpaid caregivers, nurses, and doctors view the role of nurses in managing medication near the end of life. By educating, encouraging, advocating for, and involving all pertinent stakeholders, we discovered that nurses could and should play a significant role in administering medications near the end of life. To improve the administration of drugs to patients nearing the end of their lives, doctors should value nurses' advice. The importance that nurses can play in encouraging patients' interest in drug management at the end of life should be acknowledged by healthcare providers. To fulfil this function, nurses should be strengthened through education and training.
