[Mutual communication is often lacking--interviews with professional care givers on ambulatory palliative care].
Within the study "possibilities and borders of ambulatory palliative care" interviews with employees of the outpatient care service were carried out. Thereby the subjective view of the professional care givers was the maintaining of interest. The focus was on problems in palliative home care, co-operation with other professionals and family caregivers as well as the conditions of their work. ⋯ An efficient implementation of specialised ambulatory care models (SAPV) is imperative in order to ensure an interdisciplinary and cooperative care for palliative patients and to afford an effective working field for professional care givers.
