Palliative Care InterviewAuthor`s NameInstitutionIntroductionThe nurse chosen for this interview is Edmond. Edmond is a registered nurse who has worked extensively in the field of palliative care nursing, with a special focus on end-of-life care. A unique feature about Edmond is that before becoming a nurse, Edmond was a singer. He asserts that this experience offered him a transglobal immersion in the power of interaction and human emotion. This gave him a base for his second profession as a nurse, enabling him to guide and understand his multicultural patients to express their eminent wishes (personal communication, March 15, 2014).Edmond graduated from nursing school in 1999. His first specialty was in the cardiothoracic field. Here, Edmond was exposed to the underrepresented and chronic needs of the critically ill and intensive care patients. Prior to his clinical experience, Edmond was the caregiver of a relative who was suffering from HIV. During this time, there were no antiretroviral drugs. This formed a formative experience which propelled him to his current professional choice. In addition, Edmond volunteered for several support groups for palliative patients. This helped Edmond to understand how to deal with and support a person in the process of dying.

Edmond has also won an award in a state-sponsored cancer pain initiative.Edmond also illustrated a story that showed what he loved about his work (personal communication, March 15, 2014). Once in an ICU setting, Edmond encountered an elderly man who was extremely incapacitated due to stroke. The elderly man had no blood family. However, he had many friends. Edmond helped the family to figure out the necessary steps to determine the patient`s goals. In addition, he helped the friends to find the patient`s advanced directive paperwork. The elderly man had an amazing passage. Before his illness, he ran an open “mic” night in town. His friends visited and shared the stories of his life. There was laughter, music and tears in the patient`s room, and he was showered with love from his friends. This event reminds Edmond of why he chose this path. Due to these factors, the knowledge, skills and experiences of Edmond are pertine...
