Partners in Palliative Care: Enhancing Ethics in Care at the End-of-Life de Mary Beth Morrissey

Partners in Palliative Care: Enhancing Ethics in Care at the End-of-Life

Editat de Mary Beth Morrissey, Bruce Jennings
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 aug 2012
The Collaborative for Palliative Care ("Collaborative") is a grassroots consortium of public and private organizations that came together in 2005 for the purposes of studying the increasing need for palliative care and the methods for such care. It has grown from a small fledgling group to a membership of over 50 community-based organizations and volunteers dedicated to improving care of the seriously ill through education, research and advocacy. The Collaborative bridges policy, research and practice in its initiatives and vision for the future.
Partners in Palliative Care examines specific areas of concern that the Collaborative has addressed in its education programs and advocacy, as well as the collaborative processes that have been so successful in building community assets. Areas of concentration have been diverse and include advance care planning, relational communication paradigms, community capacity building, the role of culture and spirituality in palliative care, the meaning of pain and suffering for seriously ill individuals, and the ethics of health care costs in palliative and end-of-life systems of care.
This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Social Work in End-of-Life and Palliative Care.

Recenzii

"The book comprises seven chapters, which I felt were well written and thoughtful, addressing specific areas of concern to the Collaborative. These include building community assets to improve palliative and end-of-life care, improving pain management and the relief of suffering, developing inter-professional educational programs in advance care planning, and end-of-life decision making, exploring interfaith practice and the issues of religion and spirituality and, last but not least, the vexed issue of health care costs in end-of-life and palliative care. This book is about how we might improve the whole system, and will be of interest to anyone who works in palliative care, particularly those with responsibilities for administration and planning."
Roger Woodruff, Volume 7, No. 1 (2011) of the Journal of Social Work in End of Life Care
