Palliative care for children. International Work Group on Death, Dying, and Bereavement
Abstract
The International Work Group on Death, Dying, and Bereavement recognizes the wide variation of attitudes, beliefs, and behaviours pertaining to childhood death, dying, and bereavement. The purpose of this statement is, therefore, to identify a set of assumptions which can serve as guidelines, across cultures, in the care of children with terminal illness and their families.
