The "Caring Relationship" which adopts an interpersonal perspective by focusing on the relationship between the care provider and the dying or grieving person
The "Care Provider" and the adoption of an intrapsychic approach, which addresses personal responses to death
"The Team" which adopts a systemic perspective, focusing on the organizational context within which care services are offered
