Описание:The purpose of this text is to present the perceptions regarding the decisions in the end-oflife process of the residents of the Coto Brus Nursing Home. It is a qualitative, descriptive and cross-sectional study, in which 23 residents were interviewed. For data collection, a structured questionnaire was developed with 13 multiple-choice questions. The organization and presentation of the data, in the form of descriptive statistics, was carried out using Microsoft Excel software and for the presentation of the data, it was used as a Canva tool. As part of the conclusions, the importance of expressing expectations regarding advance directives was verified for the subjects. Likewise, the need to consider organ donation was discussed, as well as the family relationship as elements that require further exploration, due to the burden it entails for the participants.
