Abstract

The importance of the concept of hospice caring on nursing and philosophical study has been highlighted as ways of preserving human dignity and on the deathbed have emerged as major social issues. This study is a qualitative research process of a philosophical research approach. First, the concept of five stages of death of Kubler Ross, the founder of life and death, was used. Second, this study used the concept of death of Nietzsche, a philosopher of life who valued life on earth as a world of becoming rather than being. Third, this study tried to apply the philosophical concept of the religious philosopher Stein to hospice care. Hospice philosophical exploration is necessary as a holistic concept of the finite human being, viewed from both the nursing and philosophical aspects. The need for research on hospice care in a general ward is raised even if it is somewhat cumbersome to eliminate the hospice ward. The hospice ward is a place where the end of life is decided and reality, so from the perspective of the dying patient, it can be negative rather than positive.
