406. Assessing Readiness for Home-based Palliative Care: Pilot Study Results from Home Healthcare Clinicians, Patients, and Caregivers

406. Assessing Readiness for Home-based Palliative Care: Pilot Study Results from Home Healthcare Clinicians, Patients, and Caregivers is proudly presented to you by National Association for Home Care & Hospice. Thank you. We hope that you enjoy your course.

Description:

The need for home-based palliative care (PC) is rising as more home health care (HHC) patients have multiple chronic conditions. However, only 7% of PC programs are run by HHC agencies due to reimbursement restrictions. If reimbursed, PC services could improve HHC patient outcomes. Understanding clinician readiness and patient/caregiver receptiveness to PC is needed. Pilot study findings assessing these factors among HHC clinicians, patients and caregivers (via questionnaires) will be presented.

Learning Objective 1:
Summarize the eight domains of palliative care from the NCP Guidelines for Quality Palliative Care and related evidence-based practices for providing quality palliative care for seriously ill adults in the HHC setting.

Learning Objective 2:
Describe the current state of readiness and receptiveness of HHC clinicians and patients/caregivers regarding palliative care.

Learning Objective 3:
Discuss how findings from pilot study can be used to develop a plan for integrating palliative care into HHC practice.
