It provides a comprehensive framework of 25 distinct items, covering domains such as functional independence, symptom management, emotional well-being, personal identity, social support, and end-of-life concerns. By utilizing a five-point Likert scale, the tool enables healthcare professionals to identify and quantify the specific challenges that impact a patient's sense of dignity, thereby facilitating more personalized, compassionate, and holistic care strategies.
