Abstract
Palliative care services are poorly developed in most resource-poor countries. With the increase in the number of cancer cases being diagnosed in these countries, most of whom present in advanced stages, an urgent need for palliative care is emerging. Pakistan is an example of a resource-poor country where palliative care services are in the initial phase of development.
