Description 1 online resource (xii, 661 pages) : illustrations Summary This book is the first authoritative, systematic and comprehensive text to define the increasingly important and evolving specialty of paediatric palliative care. It explores both the clinical aspects and the multidimensional and holistic nature of care for the dying child, based on the knowledge that all human experience has a physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual impact. The book covers ways of providing support in all of these areas both for the child, families, andcarers, recognising the importance of teamwork and taking an evidence-based approach.The Oxford Textbook of Palliati Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Subject Palliative treatment.
