Insights on Death and Dying is a collection of articles from Joy Ufema's column of the same name, accounts of how she has helped patients, families, and coworkers through some of the most stressful times in their lives.

Apart from the clinical routines of a patient's last days, these articles center on the emotional well-being of everyone involved—the patient, the patient's family, the nurse, and the rest of the medical team.
