Palliative Care (PC)

The PC assesses the needs, strengths, and preferences of persons in palliative care or hospice. It is suitable for use in both community-based and facility-based programs. The PC provides a full assessment, while the Palliative Care Hospice (PC-H) is designed for persons with a short-term prognosis.
