Abstract
The respondents indicate that they do need support, that communication is considered the most important factor followed by practical information about nursing skills, the caregivers' own health and finally social network. The respondents also expressed a need for support after the patient died during bereavement. Most respondents stated they wanted to participate in a support program at least partly together with the patient, at the patient's home and guided by a supporter who has experience with loss and is a professional.
