    Author: Smith M, Yuen K.
    Journal: Aust Fam Physician; 1994 Jul; 23(7):1260-5. PubMed ID: 7520233.
    Abstract:
    The family doctor has always had a significant role in caring for terminally ill patients. Giving support to patients in their last few weeks or hours of life can be an emotionally demanding, clinically frustrating, time-consuming task. The advent of home palliative care services has given patients, families and doctors access to a home hospice team that can provide invaluable support.
