Life JCO 5:1986-1996, 1998Longstanding & continuous relationship –
training and interest in end-of-life careResponsive to patient’s wishesTruthful, sensitive, empathic communication
with patient and familyOptimizes QOL throughout the course of the

ASCO - 2
Palliative Cancer Care a Decade Later: Accomplishments, the Need, Next Steps JCO 27: 3052-3058, 2009
Changes are needed in current policy, drug availability, education, quality improvement, and research for integration of PC throughout the experience of cancer
The need for palliative cancer care is greater than ever
Vision: PC integrated into CCC by 2020

National Priorities PartnershipConvened by the National Quality Forum (NQF)
Engage patients and families in managing their health and making decisions about their care
Improve the health of the populationImprove the safety and reliability of America’s healthcare
systemEnsure patients receive well-coordinated care within and
across all healthcare organizations, settings, and levels of care
Guarantee appropriate and compassionate care for patients with life-limiting illnesses
Eliminate overuse while ensuring the delivery of appropriate care

threatening or debilitating condition Comprehensive care Interdisciplinary teamAttention to relief of suffering Communication skills Skill in care of the dying and the bereaved Continuity of care across settings

ASCO - 3ASCO Statement: Toward
Individualized Care for Patients with Advanced Cancer JCO 28:1-
6, 2011 Individualized approach to discussing and
providing disease-directed and supportive care throughout the continuum of care
Discussion of patient’s goals and preferences improves patient care
Oncologists should curtail the use of ineffective therapy and ensure a focus on palliative care

Secondary PCWhen I need an extra set of eyes and hands…
can you give me some advice?
Tertiary PCWhen all of us here can’t figure it out…

When does PC start???2 weeks before death?Last breath?6 Months or less “if the disease runs it’s usual
course”?“Would it surprise you if they died in the next year?”At Diagnosis?“Whenever I say it does?”Triggers:
