Description
Hospice care plays a vital role in providing compassionate and holistic support to terminally ill patients and their families. While hospice care has gained recognition and acceptance globally, its implementation and understanding in the context of pediatric patients in India remain limited. This article aims to explore the pediatrician's perspective on hospice care in India, highlighting the challenges and opportunities for enhancing end-of-life care for children. By understanding the unique needs of pediatric patients and their families, healthcare professionals can contribute to the development and improvement in hospice care services across the country.
