      About the Book

      "Danai Papadatou presents] an approach of Relational Care, care based on an understanding of relationships, that should be essential reading . S]he writes in an engaging and non-technical language, and manages to convey complex ideas in a manner that is accessible to all."
      -Colin Murray Parkes, OBE, MD, FRCPsych
      President, Cruse: Bereavement Care
      (From the Foreword)

      " A] wonderful contribution to the literature on caregiving and her well thought out ideas about relational caregiving are on the cutting edge. Congratulations."
      Lynne Ann DeSpelder
      CoAuthor, "The Last Dance: Encountering Death and Dying, 8th edition"

      "In the Face of Death" explores the experiences of health care professionals who care for the seriously ill, the dying, and the bereaved. In this book, Danai Papadatou offers a practical approach to caregiving, as well as a breadth and depth of insight into both the patient's and the caregiver's responses to death.

      The author discusses the issues and challenges health care professionals face when treating dying and bereaved patients. Topics include: compassion fatigue, the inevitability of suffering and the potential for growth, suffering in the workplace, team functioning in death situations, and team resilience.

      The Main themes are:
      The Caring Relationship focuses on the relationship between the care provider and the person who is dying or grieving, and proposes a new, relationship-based model of care The Care Provider in Death Situations addresses the health professional's personal responses to death, using a model that illustrates the grieving process of the health professional The Team in the Face of Death provides recommendations for effective, interdisciplinary care services that support dying or bereaved patients as well as the health care provider
