Sumario:The growing geriatric population in the United States has created an increasing need for palliative medicine services across the range of medical and surgical specialties. Yet, palliative medicine lacks the resources to carry such a workload itself.

This clinically focused and highly practical handbook, which compliments the more comprehensive text Geriatric Palliative Care by Sean.
