title: [The present state and task of the Palliative Care Team at Tokyo Women's Medical University Yachiyo Medical Center].
abstract: The palliative care team at Tokyo Women's Medical University Yachiyo Medical Center was established in April 2007. A meeting on palliative care has been held twice a month. The team received a total of 7 cases of consultation on the subject ranging from pain management control to a home care transition in the last 5 months. The team also held an unscheduled conference for the medical staff. After this, some of the tasks are thought to make our own manual of pain management, and to plan enlightenment activities for local doctors.
