Luciveille

With regard to the implications identified concerning terminal lucidity, both on the bereavement of families and on caregiving practices, there is an urgent demand on the part of families and professionals alike to be able to be better informed about terminal lucidity, so as to be able to appropriate the phenomenon more easily. Indeed, it is through the presence of professionals and loved ones alike, and through dialogue between all these people and the dying person, that the beneficial implications of terminal lucidity can arise.

The work published and continued during the Lucideuil project thus suggests the "social" usefulness of this shared knowledge. The Luciveille project is therefore part of this innovative research context, and proposes in the wake of the first findings established on the repercussions of the phenomenon of terminal lucidity, to continue to better define this phenomenon as it is experienced by caregivers, and to promote information on its existence and implications among care professionals, who find themselves on the front line in detecting this experience and supporting it with patients and loved ones alike.
