How to Get Palliative Care?
Review a short list of questions to ask & points to make while talking to your doctor about serious illness & palliative care including what matters most, what treatments you might or might not want, whether you have a health care proxy or living will & if you’d like a referral
The first step is to talk to your own doctor. Most of the time, you have to ask your doctor for a palliative care referral to get palliative care services. Whether you are in the hospital or at home, a palliative care team can help you.
