Article: Team approaches in palliative care: a review of the literature

This article reviewed the literature on palliative care teams with a view of how and when they function best.  Emphasis is also placed on studies that suggest ways to mitigate the conflicts and limitations of team work.  Their findings strongly suggest that palliative care is best delivered through a multidisciplinary team approach.   The overall performance of a team they noted is largely determined by the supportive work environment built through effective  communication, leadership skills and mutual respect.
