What Are the Challenges in Palliative Care Research?
Despite its importance, palliative care research faces several challenges:
Funding: Limited financial resources are available for palliative care research compared to other areas of oncology. Awareness: There is a lack of awareness and understanding about the benefits of palliative care among both healthcare providers and patients. Standardization: Developing standardized protocols and guidelines for palliative care remains a significant challenge. Cultural Sensitivity: Addressing the diverse cultural, religious, and personal beliefs of patients requires nuanced and sensitive approaches.
