This scoping literature review explores the development of palliative care in Finland and its societal impact, guided by Arksey and O'Malley's five-stage framework. A total of 25 articles and grey literature sources were analyzed, revealing three key themes: the evolution and ethical foundations of palliative care in Finland, defining roles and enhancing communication, and equitable access and regional integration in palliative care. The review highlights the role of caregivers and shows that clear communication between caregivers, healthcare professionals, and patients is important to coordinating care and meeting various needs. Furthermore, it stresses the necessity of reducing regional disparities and improving access to palliative care, particularly for individuals without family caregivers. As Finland's population ages, policies must focus on equitable care for individuals living alone to avoid over-reliance on relatives and uphold fundamental rights.</p>","PeriodicalId":45992,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Work in End-of-Life & Palliative Care","volume":" ","pages":"1-22"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143484182","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One possible remembrance practice is the placement of a memorial about the deceased person in a community newspaper. It is not clear what these memorials are intended to do, how they are constructed, who places them in a public sphere for open viewing, and what purpose or purposes they serve. As these memorials could be important for grief management and other personal, family, or social purposes, an examination of memorials to the dead appearing over one year in the Edmonton Journal, the primary newspaper for a Canadian city of one million inhabitants, was conducted. This research project found memorials were uncommon (N = 567) compared to obituaries (N = 4,865), and very uncommon in relation to the number of decedents who could have been memorialized. Memorial authors were most often parents or children, with memorials usually appearing on a second year or later death anniversary. Two content themes were identified: (a) enduring love for the deceased, and (b) a continuing if not permanent remembrance of them. The findings raise many questions, but primarily how people can openly and constructively grieve long after the death of a loved one.</p>","PeriodicalId":45992,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Work in End-of-Life & Palliative Care","volume":" ","pages":"1-14"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143483784","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
