A qualitative study aimed to explore the various difficulties faced by Junior Residents, auxiliary nurses and midwives (ANM), and medical social workers (MSWs) during the home visits of palliative care patients and to address those difficulties in future visits.
The study was conducted in peripheral institutions that had provided palliative care for the patients, which helped to identify the difficulties faced by healthcare providers and to plan for solutions in future palliative home care visits.
The study is published in the Indian Journal of Palliative Care published by Scientific Scholar.
