Abstract

Background: A special survey carried out between April and September 2021 in Italy involving 600 respondents forms the basis of the present contribution. This survey focused on mapping and acquiring a deeper understanding of the possibilities of promoting a long-term vision for the development of future care for people in the pre-terminal and terminal stages of the disease and for the dying. Conclusion: Similar surveys may provide relevant and inspiring stimuli for additional and novel specific surveys, studies and analyses, as well as scientific and professional discourses regarding the importance of establishing inspiring long-term visions for the development of future care for the dying.
