BRIEFING: Voices from the Field – Findings from CAPC’s First Annual Palliative Pulse Survey

Overview

CAPC’s first annual Palliative Pulse survey captured a snapshot in time of the health of palliative care professionals and teams; trends in program activities and challenges; and innovative palliative care initiatives. Nearly 800 palliative care program leaders and team members generously shared their responses to questions such as:

  • What brings you joy in your work? What keeps you up at night?
  • What are your top three concerns for your palliative care team this year?
  • How would you describe your emotional well-being?
  • Is your program implementing changes to improve health equity?
  • For what palliative care topics do you want more information and tools?

In this briefing, CAPC leaders shared the findings and how they will shape CAPC’s road map over the next year. Hot topics included what is worrying and sustaining palliative care clinicians, where program leaders are focusing their attention, and how to use available tools and resources to address common challenges.
