Abstract
Presented at the 2025 Parkview Nursing Research Symposium.
A coworker had an impressionable conversation with a patient and their family regarding end of life. During this conversation she found out the patient was a veteran. This conversation made her aware of a care gap we could fill. She approached the NCAT chair to brainstorm ideas. After months of discussion and research, Operation Honor was born.
Two goals of this project: 1)To honor veterans and their families
To improve staff morale surrounding the loss of a patient as well as providing the patient with a “good death”
