Goals of care and advance directives: A 1-year retrospective analysis of a tertiary centre in Saudi Arabia
These findings suggest unequal access to end-of-life advocates for earlier palliative care referral, which could reduce aggressive treatments, especially for younger patients with non-malignant diseases. Non-cancer referral rates were low, highlighting a need for further collaboration and integration with palliative care services.
