This article describes the nursing care for a patient of esophageal cancer complicated by pneumonia caused by swallowing dysfunction related symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and eating and choking after chemotherapy. Based on Gordon's eleven health function assessment, the author identified the main health problems as "existing STD", "imbalanced nutrition less than body requirements" and "sense of hopelessness" during the nursing period from August 6 to August 15, 2020. During the nursing period, the nurse-patient rapport was built through proactive care; cross-discipline collaboration was used for swallowing rehabilitation, respiratory care, and individual diet plans; acupoint massage was introduced to relieve nausea and discomfort and to increase nutritional intake. The patient received insight of other patients from the support groups, self-care information, and companionship to face the difficult and shocking journey of combating the disease. The life review therapy was provided to bring positive affirmation, enhance self-worth, improve physical symptoms and achieve spiritual comfort. It is suggested that the holistic approach should be employed from the very start to involve the whole team and the whole family while incorporating the use of digital social media for health education.
