AB - Purpose: This study aimed to identify factors influencing the needs of hospice care among hospitalized elderly patients at long-term care hospitals. Methods: Data were collected from 130 hospitalized elderly patients at a long-term care hospital in B city using a self-report questionnaire on awareness of good death, death anxiety, and needs of hospice care. The data were analyzed with a t-test, ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficients, and multiple linear regression using SPSS/WIN 23.0. Results: The mean scores for awareness of good death, death anxiety, and needs of hospice care were 3.05±0.39, 2.33±0.60, and 3.85±0.55, respectively. Awareness of good death (β=.52, p<.001) and death anxiety (β=.21, p=.004) were identified as factors affecting needs of hospice care. The regression model explained 51% of needs of hospice care and was statistically significant (F=12.60, p<.001). Conclusion: In order to satisfy the needs of hospice care of elderly patients in long-term hospitals, it is crucial to check awareness of death, including clinical symptoms such as pain, and provide services considering the needs of hospice care, particularly medical needs, as well as the respective educational opportunities.
