TAILIEUCHUNG - Improving Palliative Care for Cancer

It is innately human to comfort and provide care to those suffering from cancer, particularly those close to death. Yet what seems self-evident at an individual, personal level has, by and large, not guided policy at the level of institutions in this country. There is no argument that palliative care should be integrated into cancer care from diagnosis to death. But significant barriers—attitudinal, behavioral, economic, educational, and legal— still limit access to care for a large proportion of those dying from cancer, and in spite of tremendous scientific opportunities for medical progress against all the major symptoms associated with cancer and cancer death, public research institutions have not responded | Improving Palliative Care for Cancer INSTITUTE OF MEDICINE NATIONAL RESEARCH COUNCIL Improving Palliative Care for Cancer Kathleen M.
