nouvelles crises sanitaires. The of specialist palliative care unit in an emergency department during a pandemic : A qualitative descriptive study – This article describes the experience of professionals involved in the creation of a palliative care unit in an emergency department during the COVID-19 pandemic. A qualitative descriptive approach is used. Professionals from different sectors and with a diverse range of knowledge came together around shared values of palliative care : uniqueness, dignity, and authenticity. These values were broken down into four themes : the caregiver as who I am, team spirit, the human being, and the environment. We propose some pathways for dealing with new health crises.
