Care Blog
• Is there anyone amongst the readership that
can direct me to a list, a compendium of
purely "palliative" chemotherapy regimens?
• You can't find a protocol because there is no
such thing. Chemotherapy produces
symptoms, usually more symptoms than it
relieves….Annonymous

Patients Reported Oncology Teams
Often Do Not:
• Consider psychosocial care as a part of
their patients’ cancer care.
• Understand their psychosocial needs,
know about resources, or refer when
needed.

The Relief of Suffering
Physicians’ failure to
understand the nature of
suffering can result in
medical intervention that
(though technically
adequate) not only fails to
relieve suffering but
becomes a source of
suffering itself.
Eric Cassel, 1982
