Rooted in everyday hospital medicine, Palliative Skills for
Frontline Clinicians addresses the challenges of delivering complex
care to patients living with serious illnesses. Spanning emergency
medicine, internal medicine, surgery and various subspecialties,
each chapter reads like a story, comparing usual care with a
step-by-step palliative-based approach. This case-based book
features a multidisciplinary, palliative-trained authorship,
including neurologists, nephrologists, emergency physicians,
surgeons, intensivists, and obstetricians. Divided into four parts,
Palliative Skills for Frontline Clinicians outlines common clinical
scenarios across settings and specialties to highlight unmet needs
of patients with potentially terminal illnesses. Each case is
broken down into the usual standard approach, and delves into
detail regarding different palliative interventions that can be
appropriate in those scenarios. These are meant to be practice
changing; down to the actual words used to communicate with
patients. In addition to the book's focus on the principles of
palliative care and the "art" of treating the patient, approaches
to communication with the patient's families for the best long-term
outcomes are discussed. Concise and pragmatic, Palliative Skills
for Frontline Clinicians is meant to be practice changing. It
provides readers with both a new conceptual framework, as well as
actual words to communicate with patients and medication doses for
symptom management. It is an invaluable resource for non-palliative
trained clinicians who wish to strengthen their palliative care
skills.
