1. Introduction: It is a great idea for nursing practice to concentrate upon the healing and
treatment process and improvise techniques for reflecting on the process as a whole, in
order to assess the accomplishment of the entire nursing process. The 5Rs Framework for
a Healing and curing method in the Health industry is one of the key process (Carrington

relating, reasoning and reconstruction are the key steps of undertaking reflection using
the 5Rs framework (Project, 2015).

Effective interaction between nurses and other health professionals, patients and family
members and caregivers is the primary feature of palliative care, particularly when
communicating uncomfortable news. Research has shown that healthcare practitioners
are citing certain problems in communicating effectively, especially because of the
complexity of providing patients and their caregivers with hope to improve their quality
of life through a holistic approach that involves physical, social, psychological and
spiritual care (Ghahramanian et al., 2014).
