Standards of Practice for Pediatric Palliative Care and Hospice is designed to supplement NHPCO’s Standards of Practice for Hospice Programs. The standards set clinical and organizational precedence for hospice and palliative care programs providing care to infants, children, adolescents, and their families in the home, hospital, and other settings. These standards can be used to create a template for organizational best practice and to provide safe, effective, high-quality care for children and their families facing life-threatening illness.
