Palliative care provision for children in general practice: A retrospective cohort study

These results demonstrate that GPs are highly involved in providing pediatric palliative care. The palliative nature of these children and advance care planning discussions are not routinely documented and/or performed by GPs. Further insights into guidance that supports GPs, in collaboration with other healthcare professionals, in providing palliative care for children at home and their families are needed.

Abstract

These results demonstrate that GPs are highly involved in providing pediatric palliative care. The palliative nature of these children and advance care planning discussions are not routinely documented and/or performed by GPs. Further insights into guidance that supports GPs, in collaboration with other healthcare professionals, in providing palliative care for children at home and their families are needed.
