This study was conducted to determine the good death perceptions of intensive care and oncology inpatient unit nurses, their attitudes toward care of the dying and the correlation between them. The sample of this study consisted of 134 intensive care and oncology inpatient unit nurses. The data were collected using the Frommelt Attitudes Toward Care of the Dying Scale and the Good Death Scale. As the results of the study, the nurses had high good death perceptions. They had moderately positive attitudes toward care of the dying patients. As their good death perceptions increased, their positive attitudes toward care of the dying individual also increased. It is recommended to organize programs to raise awareness of nurses about good death and attitudes toward the dying patients and to strengthen their communication and coping methods
