Long description:

This practical, thought-provoking guide provides the unemotional, clear, and accurate advice necessary for communicating with patients in a palliative care setting ? a pivotal aspect of being a palliative care expert that is so difficult to quantify and teach. It uses genuine anecdotes and case studies to bring theory to life and assist in everyday application.


The revised edition includes sections on the conversation about assisted dying and how it feels to be on the other side of clinical communication as a patient or carer.


Communication in Palliative Care is a wide-ranging, invaluable resource to palliative care professionals across all clinical settings.


Features:



  • Offers the lessons learned over a lifetime of care in practice from diagnosis into bereavement

  • Addresses the topics of daily concern to palliative care professionals and carers working in oncology or with non-malignant disease and with the elderly across all clinical settings
