Specialist palliative care providers are seeking to transfer the principles of palliative care to more general care settings in order to meet the needs of people with diseases other than cancer. To prepare nursing home staff to provide palliative care increasing numbers of educational initiatives are now being offered. This paper explores some of the assumptions that underpin these initiatives. Recommendations are made that recognize the expertise already held within nursing homes and propose a collaborative approach to promote the appropriate integration of palliative care with nursing home practice.
专科姑息治疗提供者正试图将姑息治疗原则应用于更普通的护理环境，以满足癌症以外其他疾病患者的需求。为了让养老院工作人员做好提供姑息治疗的准备，现在提供了越来越多的教育举措。本文探讨了支撑这些举措的一些假设。提出的建议认可养老院现有的专业知识，并提议采用协作方法，以促进姑息治疗与养老院实践的适当整合。
