Hello everyone! I am a student in Ontario and I am working on a dilemma question for an assignment. I am researching the different assessments that are out there to assess quality of life and determining which one(s) are most relevant and best to use in the palliative care setting. I am writing to you to ask if anyone has experience working in palliative care and what assessments you have used and whether or not you found them effective at targeting the clients' actual quality of life in all domains. There are only a couple that address spirituality and emotion, which are key components of the person. Most of the assessments focus on physical symptoms with less regard on the psychological aspects of the person's life. If anyone has any thoughts or assistance for me, I would appreciate it.
Thanks, Heather Bast Student OT _______________________________________________ OTlist mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://otnow.com/mailman/listinfo/otlist_otnow.com
