Sociálna práca v ospicovej a paliatívnej starostlivosti

This work deals with present problems of hospice and palliative care. Dying is an inseparable part of everyone´s life. We can point out that hospice care is a big contribution not only for dying person but for his family as well. Hospice and palliative care is a complex care which tries hard to ensure not only patient´s biological needs but also his psychological, social and spiritual needs. It provides health care to an incurably ill person.
