Lived Experiences of Bereaved Family Members During COVID-19 Pandemic in a Tertiary Care Hospital With Special Reference to Imposed Restrictive COVID Guidelines-a Qualitative Study

Preet S. Patel et al.

Summary: This study used a qualitative approach to understand the experiences of bereaved family members under restrictive COVID guidelines. Interviews were conducted with 10 Hindu, Gujarati family members who lost loved ones during the first wave. The findings revealed difficulties in communication during hospitalization, disruptions in end-of-life and funeral rituals, and challenges in accepting the harsh realities brought about by the imposed changes. Most participants expressed the need for staying with the patients and found telephonic communication inadequate, leading to doubts about death. They also experienced remorse for not being able to see or bring their loved ones home during their last moments and felt deprived of traditional rituals. Furthermore, they had to cope with their grief alone.
