The purpose of this study is to introduce and evaluate a new intervention called Dignity Talk, meant to enhance end-of-life experience for both patients and their families. Dignity Talk is based on a set of questions by which terminally ill patients and their family members can engage in meaningful conversations with each other. It is intended to lessen feelings of loss and helplessness and enhance feelings of connectedness by facilitating conversations that tap into a sense of meaning and purpose, sharing of memories, wishes, hopes, and giving guidance to those who will soon be left behind.
