Abstract:

e20749 Beginning of the hospice care in Poland is associated with democratic opposition in the eighties of the XX century and social movement Solidarity. In 1978, C. Saunders visited Gdansk, Warsaw, and Krakow, supporting an organization of palliative care in Poland. Polish hospice care, similarly to other countries,originated from the necessity of special care of terminally ill cancer patients. Palliative care societies, initially informal, then registered formally, emerged in Poland in 1981. Hospices, both institutional and house hospice care, came into being in all larger cities in Poland t

Abstract:

In 1990, palliative care services in Japan entered a new era when the national government authorized medical insurance cover for hospice care. Within the last decade, gradual yet remarkable progress has taken place in the perception of the need for palliative care services in Japan. The first Japanese hospice opened in 1981, followed by three other hospices over a nine-year period. These have been well received both by the public and medical professionals, although many difficulties have been encountered in establishing them. It is hoped that further development will include an increase in the

Abstract:

Hospice care is a type of care and philosophy of care that focuses on the palliation of a terminally ill or seriously ill patient's pain and symptoms, and attending to their emotional and spiritual needs (Powell 2014). The concept of hospice has been evolving since the 11th century. Then, and for centuries thereafter, hospices were places of hospitality for the sick, wounded, or dying, as well as those for travellers and pilgrims (Dossey 1999). The modern concept of hospice includes palliative care for the incurably ill given in such institutions as hospitals or nursing homes, but also care pr

Abstract:

Despite the recent proliferation of hospice programs and related research, a number of basic issues remain. Firstly the populations “at risk” for hospice care have not been precisely delineated. Secondly, the impact of the structure of a given hospice program on outcome has been given insufficient attention. Thirdly, assessing the impact of hospice care on quality of life has presented challenges in both definition and measurement. Finally, data relating to the costs of hospice care are difficult to evaluate. It is recommended that palliative care research focus on these areas. In addition, ho

The term “palliative care” has a negative connotation and may act as a barrier to early patient referrals. Rebranding has thus been proposed as a strategy to reduce the negative perceptions associated with palliative care. For example, using the term “supportive care” instead of “palliative care” in naming palliative care units has been proposed in several studies. In Taiwan, terms other than “palliative” and “hospice” are already widely used in the names of palliative care units. With this in mind, this study investigated the characteristics of palliative care unit names in order to better un

WHO defines the palliative care as the active total care of patients and their families when the patient's disease is no longer responsive to curative treatment. Such a care can be obtained in hospices providing good symptom relief of advanced cancer, and emotional support for both patient and his family.
