Abstract:
Children with cancer represent a distinct patient population, and decisions regarding hospice care preferences are primarily made by their parents. This article examines parental preferences concerning the location and goals of hospice care for their children with cancer, discusses the advantages and disadvantages associated with these choices, and identifies factors influencing parental preferences for hospice care. The aim is to provide a reference for clinical healthcare professionals in delivering high-quality hospice care services for children with cancer that align with parental preferences.
