It would be helpful to the Forum users if you can narrow your query--what questions do you have about starting an inpatient unit?

Re:Re:Inpatient Hospital Palliative Care Unit (by JenRN on 05/20/2011)
My medical director is wanting info re;which national hospital based palliative programs have inpatient units,and how many beds in the unit. The capc site gives info re;palliative care programs,but not which ones have inpatient units. Also,I have called several of the hospitals on the website,and have learned that they no longer have palliative programs. Thank you for your assistance,Jennifer Beckner,RN/Florida Hospital Palliative Care
