Palliative care as an emerging role for respiratory health professionals: Findings from a cross-sectional, exploratory Canadian survey.

Conclusions: As RHP roles continue to evolve, consideration should be given to the ways in which RHPs can contribute to improving the quality of care for patients with advanced respiratory disease. Building collaborations with RHPs, palliative care, and other existing health programs can ensure high quality of care. Creating and taking advantage of learning opportunities to build skills and comfort in using a palliative approach will benefit respiratory patients. PMID: 31595226 [PubMed]
