INTERFERENCE BETWEEN LEGAL AND MEDICAL ISSUES IN THE FIELD OF PALLIATIVE CARE SERVICES

Summary/Abstract: The population of a country benefits from prevention, curative programs but also from palliative programs, addressed to patients with chronic diseases. Palliative care is defined as a holistic, complex approach to patients with chronic diseases, in order to increase the quality of life of patients and their families. From a legislative point of view, since 2018, all aspects of palliative care have been regulated in Romania as well. As can be seen from the present study, the regulation of palliative services is a complex, far-reaching one, regarding the providers of palliative services and the ways of carrying out their activity, as well as the patients. Beneficiaries of these services and the interdisciplinary team involved in their provision. We find through this study that this regulation is a combination of the legal field with elements of medical activity.
