Description
This guide is designed to assist health care settings develop a strategic plan for improving palliative care services within a health care setting. PCNOW is recommending that: All health care settings develop and implement a Palliative Care Services strategic plan, including minimum expectations for:
- Specialist palliative care services
- Processes for identifying unmet palliative care needs
- Measuring quality of care
- Generalist education
The beginning of the guide includes three Strategic Planning Worksheets: SWOT Analysis, Program Components, and Action Plan. These are very generic and can be adapted to meet particular needs. Settings such as hospitals and health systems often have individuals with experience in completing a detailed Strategic Plan, users are encouraged to reach out to these resources.
