Abstract: Palliative care is a patient&family-centered special medical service, and it focuses on the effective management of physical, psychological, social and spiritual symptoms or problems. It provides the best quality of life for patients. Due to economic, cultural backgroud and other reasons in China, the practice of palliative care for cancer patients is still in the exploratory stage, and has not been a mature and systematic management model. This article will introduce, summarize, and analyze our palliative care team from aspects of team construction, member responsibility, work flow, work content, quality improvement and effect, so as to provide references for the development of palliative care in cancer patients in China.
