Do you have an experience with palliative care? Tell us about it!
How do I still have Rx and testing an continue to Have new tests and my doctor that I can see? I want to stay at home with daily help for my problems. I do not want to leave my home but have a high presence by medical staff mostly on a daily basis. We have no in hospital Palative care.😊
If you have several serious major illnesses being cared for by 11 doctors. Can someone help with changing out iliostomy bags and other things able to h have palliative care daily.😊
As a RN case manager I found that it’s the Palliative Care team that is burdensome. Often the patient is ready for Hospice and PC team keeps them second guessing their decisions. They wouldn’t let the patients go - much like Oncology Dr wouldn’t stop treatments. The patient gets awfully confused. They are ready for end of life and Hospice but the PC team wants to continue palliation of care and didn’t want to talk to the patients about Hospice. Since the “H” word became taboo the hospice grp got pushed out of the inpatient hospital environment and was replaced by the “softer” version of Palliative Care. Before I retired I was trying to get the Hospice grp integrated back in so that patients could truly have a choice and talk to hospice directly themselves so that they could then make a decision how to proceed in their treatment process.

Thanks for sharing your experiences. That’s too bad that this happens sometimes. I would think it is definitely different among different palliative care teams. I also imagine that it’s a difficult line to walk between being realistic about outcomes, but also not letting patients go to hospice over what could be perceived as some more momentary depression. I totally agree that patients should know all their options, however and decision should be up to them.
