ABSTRACT:
Population aging, accompanied by the increasing institutionalization of older adults, poses new challenges to healthcare, particularly in the field of palliative care. In this context, dignity emerges as a key principle to ensure that the end of life is experienced with respect, individuality, and comprehensive support. This chapter presents an integrative literature review aimed at analyzing practices and strategies for preserving dignity among older adults in palliative care within long-term care facilities (LTCFs). Searches were conducted in PubMed, SciELO, and LILACS databases using the descriptors “elderly,” “palliative care,” “long-term care facilities,” and “dignity.”
