Description

Palliative care aims to improve the quality of life of patients and their families by identifying and alleviating pain and psychosocial problems at an early stage. However, homeless people often find it difficult to access this important support. Social stigmatization, mistrust of the healthcare system and the unpredictable course of the disease make caring for this population group a particular challenge. In addition, addictions and the constant change of location make it difficult to plan ahead and provide care.This book sheds light on the difficulties and shortcomings of palliative care for homeless people. Through the voices of those affected and care staff, perspectives are uncovered that should lead to better and equal care for this often neglected group.
