回应苦痛:缓和医疗的发展历程与社会维度OA

A review of the development course of palliative care reveals that its goal of alleviating suffer-ing determines the indispensability of the social dimension in this field.As palliative care emerges in response to the general trends such as aging and disease spectrum changes of social development,it naturally becomes one of the key solutions to social issues including the difficulties in caregiving and hospitalization for end-of-life pa-tients.Beyond its social value,the comprehensiveness and localization of care emphasized by palliative care also require the support and intervention of theoretical perspectives such as social support and sociocultural adapta-tion.Through the framework of suffering and care,medicine and social sciences have achieved significant inter-disciplinary integration in palliative care.
