Advance directives at the end of life in people with cancer in palliative care
The proposed project aims to explore the significance of advance directives for people with cancer in palliative care in Medellín, Antioquia. This study is crucial for healthcare professionals and institutions involved in end-of-life care. The findings will provide valuable insights for direct caregivers, training programs in healthcare, administrative decisions in palliative care settings, and the development of institutional care strategies. This project will contribute to improving care quality and enhancing the integration of palliative care across different healthcare actors, institutions, care levels, and environments in both Colombia and Canada.
