1268P Associations between psycho-social-spiritual interventions, reduced aggressive end-of-life measures, and increased time after final oncologic treatment

Abstract

Though the positive impact of palliative care physicians and nurses on end of life medical outcomes is increasingly well-established, little is known about the impact of spiritual caregivers, psychologists, and social workers on desired end of life medical outcomes. In particular, on reduced use of aggressive care in the final two weeks of life, having more time after the last active oncological treatment and before death, and increased hospice use.
