Abstract

The most common place where people die in hospitals (58.3%). If we add to the hospital and medical institutions and social facilities find that in these institutions die up to a total of 73.9% of all deaths (IHIS, died 2012).

The paradox is that 78% of people would like to spend the last moments of his life and die at home, 69% of people would like to have with you family and 45% partner (Dying and care for the terminally ill, 2011).
