Psychosocial Issues in Palliative Care: A Community Based Approach for Life Limiting Illness, 3rd Edition

Caring for Terminally Ill Patients: A Comprehensive Guide to Psychosocial Support

Caring for terminally ill patients and their families is a challenging task. It requires the skills of many professionals and the support of the community. While clinicians are comfortable in assessing physical problems, it is often the psychosocial issues that prove to be the most complex. This fully-updated and expanded new edition takes a comprehensive look at current practice and provision of psychosocial support as applied to a range of palliative care patients.

The book covers a number of important areas including community approaches to psychosocial care, neonatal palliative care, the provision of psychosocial care to families, the role of volunteers in supporting palliative care professionals, and the needs of the frail elderly, marginalised patients, and those with dementia.

With multiple case study examples, this highly practical text examines current literature and evidence to demonstrate the best research-based practice in psychosocial care. It is an essential resource for professionals working within hospitals and communities in the fields of medicine, nursing, social work, chaplaincy, counselling, primary care, and mental health.

Review of “Caring for Terminally Ill Patients”

Reading “Caring for Terminally Ill Patients” was an eye-opening experience for me. As a healthcare professional, I am continually challenged with providing the best care for my patients, especially those who are in their final stages of life.

The case study examples presented in the book helped me to better assess the emotional, social, and spiritual needs of my patients. It gave me insights into community approaches to psychosocial care, which I found extremely valuable in my practice. The chapters on neonatal palliative care and the needs of the frail elderly and those with dementia were particularly enlightening, as these are areas that I often struggle with.

The authors have done an excellent job of compiling current literature and evidence to support their recommendations. I appreciate that they have focused on research-based practice, as this gives me confidence in the interventions I implement in my day-to-day work. The book is well-organized and easy to follow, making it a practical resource that I can refer back to whenever I need guidance.

Overall, “Caring for Terminally Ill Patients” is a valuable resource for any healthcare professional involved in the care of terminally ill patients.
