Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Palliative home-based services have evolved to address gaps in care identified for adults and children with advanced medical illness. These gaps may include lack of timely access for symptom management, inadequate preparation of individuals and caregivers, lack of comprehensive services without self-navigation and substantial effort, and inadequate caregiver support. A diagnostic and therapeutic center allows for outpatient procedures to determine and evaluate health conditions.
