Introduction: Death is the only sure thing in life. Nevertheless, death and dying can be approached in a healthy way. Understanding and respecting the diversity of people's opinions about dying and death promotes a healthy way to die as well as accepting their own mortality. Palliative care is a process that focuses on a holistic approach to the patient. The patient is seen as an individual and his personal, cultural, religious and ethical values are respected. As care and support is provided to the patient, it is also necessary to provide support to the family of the dying patient. Research goals: Examine the link between nurses' and technicians' attitudes towards the death and death of patients towards work experience, the workplace and the level of education. To examine whether there is a difference in attitudes of nurses and technicians related to additional education in a palliative approach, religious beliefs and communication skills. Methods: The study included 60 nurses of the Clinic for Psychiatry Vrapče, secondary education, bachelors and higher education, aged 18 to 65 years. The condition for completing the questionnaire was a signed informed consent and acquaintance with the purpose of the research. A standardized Death Attitude Profile-Revised questionnaire by Wong, Reker, and Gasser was used. The questionnaire consists of 32 statements concerning different attitudes of people towards death. Results: The research results show that there is no significant difference between nurses depending on the length of service and the level of education. Nurses who have additional education in palliative care show that they accept death more easily than people who do not have education in palliative care. Respondents who consider themselves more religious tend to accept death more easily and accept death as an approach and entrance to the afterlife, unlike non-religious people and. Likewise, more religious people consider death to be the end of suffering for a sick person and the beginning of the afterlife. Conclusion: Research has shown there are no significant differences between gender, work experience, workplace, level of education in attitudes towards death and dying. More religious people have more positive attitude towards dying, and nurses who have additional education in palliative care more easily accept death as a natural course of life. This kind of data tells us that it is necessary to develop palliative care even more and conduct more education.
