OBJECTIVES: The aim was: (1) to investigate preferred place for end-of-life care and death for bereaved family members who had recently lost a person with advanced illness and (2) to investigate associations between bereaved family members' preferences and individual characteristics, health-related quality of life, as well as associations with their perception of the quality of care that the ill person had received, the ill person's preferred place of death and involvement in decision-making about care.METHODS: A cross-sectional survey with bereaved family members, employing descriptive statistics and multinominal logistic regression analyses.RESULTS: Of the 485 participants, 70.7% were women, 36.1% were ≥70 years old, 34.5% were partners and 51.8% were children of the deceased. Of the bereaved family members, 52% preferred home for place of end-of-life care and 43% for place of death. A higher likelihood of preferring inpatient palliative care was associated with being female and having higher education, whereas a lower likelihood of preferring a nursing home for the place of care and death was associated with higher secondary or higher education. Partners were more likely to prefer hospital for place of care and nursing home for place of death.CONCLUSIONS: Home was the most preferred place for end-of-life care and death. Bereaved people's experiences of end-of-life care may impact their preferences, especially if they had a close relationship, such as a partner who had a higher preference for nursing home and hospital care. Conversations about preferences for the place of care and death considering previous experience are encouraged.
