Palliative care isn’t limited to the final stages of a cancer diagnosis. You can apply its principles across all settings of care and throughout the entire cancer trajectory, from diagnosis to survivorship. Learn what this means for your practice, especially as the population of patients with cancer continues to age. You’ll tackle the eight domains of palliative care, including the physical, social, ethical, legal, and cultural aspects of care.
Objectives1. Describe the increasing need for palliative care integration.
