| Abstract Aims: To explore the lived experience of resuscitation team members involved in notifying family members when a patient dies following a resuscitation event within an Iranian cultural context. Background: Death notification to the family is indeed a difficult and an important issue for resuscitation team members. The manner in which health professionals deliver news to family members should incorporate elements of sensitivity, timing, and adequate clinical explanations with emphasis on the efforts made by the professionals during the resuscitation. Design: A phenomenological study Method: Over a period of five months (June 2016 to November 2016) eleven nurses and six physicians were interviewed using an in-depth interview process applying Van Manen’s hermeneutic phenomenological approach for data collection and analysis. The participants were recruited from six tertiary hospitals in Tabriz, Iran. Findings: There were two main themes that emerged from the data analysis including: “contributing factors on the impact of notification”, and “notification strategies”. A further thirteen subthemes emerged under the main themes. A number of culturally related issues emerged with the participants feeling more comfortable informing male rather than female relatives about the death of the patient following a resuscitation. Conclusions: Notifying family members of a patient’s death is a stressful and culturally sensitive task for the resuscitation team members. The nature of the patient’s presenting condition, together with the various resuscitation interventions can result in relatives responding unpredictably. Providing health professionals with the appropriate training and skills in order to effectively communicate with family members will ensure that the families’ level of preparedness, understanding and cultural beliefs are taken into consideration. |
