Abstract
Palyatif bakım, son yirmi yıldan bu yana önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunu haline gelmiştir. Nüfusun yaşlanması, yükselen yaşam beklentisi ve artan kronik hastalıklar bu gelişmeye katkıda bulunmaktadır. Buna ek olarak tıbbi bilgi ve teknolojideki gelişmeler, tedavi olanaklarının artması ve epidemiyolojik geçişler, yaşamın son aşamasında palyatif bakım için büyüyen bir ihtiyaca yol açmıştır. Her insan yaşamının son aşamasında iyi bakılmak ve acısız ölmek ister. Bu bir insanlık hakkı olup yaşam sonu bakım tüm dünyada sağlık kalitesinin bir göstergesi olarak kabul edilir. Palyatif bakımın hedefi, kapsamlı bir değerlendirme ve tedavi ile hastalar tarafından yaşanan fiziksel, psikososyal ve ruhsal belirtileri ve ailelerinin acılarını hafifletmektir. Hastanın ölümünden sonra palyatif bakım öncelikle ailenin yası üzerine odaklanır. T.C. Sağlık Bakanlığı tarafından bu önemli soruna bir çözüm bulmak için ilk adım atılmış, palyatif bakım merkez ve birimlerinin kurulması için hazırlıklara, sağlık personelinin eğitimlerine başlanmıştır. S.B. Ulus Devlet Hastanesi ekibi olarak bizde kapsamlı bir palyatif bakım merkezi açmak üzere yola çıkmış bulunmaktayız. Amacımız palyatif bakım organizasyonun sağlık sistemi içinde yer alması ve ülke genelinde yayılmasına katkıda bulunmaktır.
