Abstract

The "interRAI Cure Palliative (PC): strumento di valutazione e manuale d’utilizzo" is the Italian translation of the "interRAI Palliative Care (PC) Assessment Form and User's Manual" and contains country-specific examples for Italy.The interRAI Palliative Care (PC) Assessment System is a comprehensive, standardized system for evaluating the needs, strengths, and preferences of those in palliative care or hospice settings.The PC instrument is suitable for use in both facility-based and community-based palliative care programs. There are two versions of its assessment form. The interRAI PC Assessment Form contains the full assessment. The Palliative Care Hospice (PC-H) Assessment Form, which consists of a subset of items from the interRAI PC Assessment Form, is designed for persons with a shorter prognosis.This book contains introductory material; an item-by-item guide to completing the assessment forms; the PC assessment form; and the PC-H assessment form.
