Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Part of the "What Do I Do Now: Palliative Care" series, Clinical and Ethical Dilemmas in Palliative and End-of-Life Care bridges the gap between the clear, logical, and harmonious clinical world of textbooks and the chaotic, turbulent, resource-constrained, and often unpredictable world of everyday practice. Each chapter begins with a case and is followed by a diagnosis, explanation of next steps, and rationale for decision-making by experts in the field, mimicking the kind of "curbside consult" that occurs between an experienced clinician and someone new to the field. Tackling dilemmas related to patients, families, healthcare professionals, and the healthcare system, this book comprehensively helps readers learn to apply practical knowledge in challenging circumstances--and often with incomplete information--to achieve clinical competency.

Tackling dilemmas related to patients, families, healthcare professionals, and the healthcare system, this book comprehensively helps readers learn to apply practical knowledge in challenging circumstances-and often with incomplete information-to achieve clinical competency. The volume is also a self-assessment tool that tests the reader's ability to answer the question, "What do I do now?"
