Palliative care interventions used by village health volunteers in Thailand
Future studies should explore how to integrate the findings of this study into culturally-tailored palliative care programmes and to provide training for VHV on effective interventions to provide emotional and spiritual support. Having the VHV on the interprofessional team could be a way to ensure compassionate end-of-life care for palliative care patients and their circles of support.
