Pedoman Penanggulangan Kanker

Terpadu Paripurna (DepKes RI, 1997)

Perawatan Paliatif ialah semua tindakan aktif guna meringankan beban penderita kanker terutama yang tidak mungkin disembuhkan.

Falsafah yang mendasari Pelaksanaan Perawatan Paliatif (Pedoman PKTP DepKes RI , 1997)

Menjadi hak semua pasien untuk mendapatkan perawatan yang terbaik sampai akhir hayatnya. Penderita kanker yang dalam stadium lanjut atau tidak berangsur-angsur sembuh perlu mendapat pelayanan kesehatan sehingga penderitaannya dapat dikurangi. Pelayanan yang diberikan harus sedemikian rupa sehingga penderita dapat meninggal dengan tenang dan dalam iman.

Hospice

• “Hospice care is a compassionate method of caring for terminally ill people. Hospice is a medically directed, interdisciplinary team-managed program of services that focuses on the patient/family as the unit of care. Hospice care is palliative rather than curative, with an emphasis on pain and symptom control, so that a person may live the last days of life fully, with dignity and comfort, at home or in a home-like setting”.

- National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization

If you do remember :

1. The definition of palliative care

2. The clarification of active measures in the definition

3. The philosophical basis of the implementation of the palliative care.
