Abstract

This article examines the evolution and significance of palliative care within modern oncological practices, tracing its roots from the hospice movement and highlighting key contributors like Dame Cicely Saunders and Balfour Mount. The distinction between palliative care and hospice care is explored, emphasizing the comprehensive nature of palliative care across disease stages. The article underscores the positive impact of early integration of palliative care into standard oncological treatment on patient outcomes, quality of life, and healthcare utilization. Clinical guidelines, exemplified by the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), underscore palliative care's essential role in patient-centered care. The concluding focus is on collaborative efforts to ensure equitable access to timely and compassionate palliative care services, thereby promoting holistic well-being for individuals facing serious illnesses.
