Legal Aspects of Palliative Care: Hospice Palliative Care Association of South Africa

This manual, produced by careful and caring experts across the field of palliative care, brings together up-to-date approaches, and sets them in a helpful framework for dealing effectively with the legal issues that will almost certainly arise. The manual gives hospice staff information about legal assistance for their patients – and it directs them how to find it. On the flip side, it also provides information for legal practitioners to enhance their understanding of palliative care and to extend their services to this vulnerable group. (160 pages)
