Since the efforts of Dame Cicely Saunders and the founders of the
modern hospice movement, compassion has become a fundamental part
of palliative care. In this ground-breaking book, international
experts give their critical thoughts on the essence and role of
compassion, in both palliative and hospice care over the past
half-century. Compassion: The essence of palliative and end-of-life
care provides insight into the motivations for, and practice of,
compassionate palliative and hospice care, featuring the
reflections of leading healthcare professionals, social workers,
chaplains and educators. Chapters utilise case examples and
first-hand experiences to explore the historical and contemporary
discourse surrounding the concept of compassion in palliative
medicine. This book is relevant to a multidisciplinary audience of
palliative care practitioners, including undergraduate and graduate
students in sociology, psychology and theology, and healthcare
professionals in oncology and gerontology.
