Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Palliative Care
  • Hospice Care

Background:

  • Referral of advanced cancer patients to hospice is increasingly critical for oncologists.
  • Hospice care offers high-quality, high-value support for patients and families facing terminal cancer.
  • There is a need to shift the perception of hospice from "giving up" to "giving more, but differently."

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a communication strategy for oncologists to facilitate timely hospice referrals.
  • To integrate oncology, palliative, and hospice services for optimal patient and family support.

Main Methods:

  • The report frames a communication approach for oncologists.
  • It emphasizes the complementary strengths of various care providers.

Main Results:

  • A communication framework can help oncologists identify and refer appropriate patients.
  • Collaborative care models enhance the meaningfulness of care for patients and families.

Conclusions:

  • Oncologists can adopt a communication strategy to improve hospice referrals.
  • Integrating oncology, palliative, and hospice care maximizes benefits for patients and families during end-of-life.
  • This collaborative approach redefines hospice as an enhancement of care, not an endpoint.
