Andy, there are numerous models (too many to discuss in detail here but I'm happy to share them off-line, tcousounis@digital-action.com) of delivering palliative care in a continuum. The greatest challenge you'll likely encounter is assessing the pros and cons of these models in light of the program's objectives, and its milestone metrics, and selecting the right model. Defining these milestone metrics is a formidable, but absolutely essential, step in developing a palliative care consult service.
