Intensive care units (ICUs) are used to treat seriously ill patients who require cutting-edge medical and technical care. Sometimes concerns are expressed about whether treatment should be withheld or stopped since certain patients do not seem to profit from it. To gain a deeper grasp of what appropriate nursing care entails for these patients, this study used the experiences of ICU nurses. The study design was based on interpretive phenomenology, and focus-group methodology-inspired group interviews were used to gather data. Two groups of the participants were formed, and four interviews were conducted with each group. The Colaizzi model was employed during the analysis. The findings demonstrate how several fundamental elements—continuity, knowledge, competence, and cooperation—were necessary for providing quality nursing care. Clearly defined objectives to provide appropriate end-of-life care or life-saving treatments. Verbal communication and the use of hands by nurses were cornerstones of quality nursing care. In order to improve nurse care for patients on the verge of passing away, the study emphasises several implications for future ICU nursing practise and education.
