title: [Palliative care team in National Hospital Organization Osaka Minami Medical Center].
abstract: Preparation of a system of palliative care support is called for by The Basic Act on Anti-Cancer Measures and The Basic Plans for National Cancer Strategy. The Organization of Hospitals for Cancer Treatment should play a very important role in the regional palliative care network. The palliative care team in the Organization of Hospitals for Cancer Treatment should promote palliative care support throughout regional hospitals. In 2007, we established a palliative care team at the National Hospital Organization Osaka Minami Medical Center. We have drawn up a detailed report on the activities of palliative care team in our medical center.
