Preferred term

stages of dying  

Definition(s)

  • When Does Dying Begin and End? Before one can consider whether there are stages of dying, one needs to determine when dying begins and ends. Theoretically, dying begins when bodily functions start an irreversible decline toward total cessation of all bodily functions and final death. [Source: Encyclopedia of Human Development; Stages of Dying]
