![Page 23: Mobile palliative care teams in Germany1301.nccdn.net/4_4/000/000/019/7e3/0940-Rockmann... · Germany at a glance… 82 Mio inhabitants 900.000 die / year (10,5 %) 250.000 die from](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022043009/5f9d763916a654138b383ba2/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

adequate symptom control
support for his family
respect of his will / wish

We did a questionnaire
(qualitative research)
6 weeks after death – letter sent to family
two questions:
1) „what did you appreciate the most?“
2) „What did you miss?“
30% reply

answers:
“the fact that someone really cares“
„availability“
![Page 27: Mobile palliative care teams in Germany1301.nccdn.net/4_4/000/000/019/7e3/0940-Rockmann... · Germany at a glance… 82 Mio inhabitants 900.000 die / year (10,5 %) 250.000 die from](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022043009/5f9d763916a654138b383ba2/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
„someone really cares“
-what does this mean?
our answer:
“pilot“ system (as opposite to shifts)
![Page 28: Mobile palliative care teams in Germany1301.nccdn.net/4_4/000/000/019/7e3/0940-Rockmann... · Germany at a glance… 82 Mio inhabitants 900.000 die / year (10,5 %) 250.000 die from](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022043009/5f9d763916a654138b383ba2/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
„pilot system“
one team member is in charge of the patient (“pilot”):
mon-fri, 9.00h-18.00h
1 nurse + 1 doctor
stays in close contact, visits regularly (1-7 times/wk)
builds up relationship
identifies needs
calls for additional support (i.e. doctor, cleric,
psychologist…)
After hours shifts: 1 nurse /1 doctor on call (changing
every day)
![Page 29: Mobile palliative care teams in Germany1301.nccdn.net/4_4/000/000/019/7e3/0940-Rockmann... · Germany at a glance… 82 Mio inhabitants 900.000 die / year (10,5 %) 250.000 die from](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022043009/5f9d763916a654138b383ba2/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
„pilot system“
advantages:
only few different people at the patients place
(“private sphere”)
needs are often better identified
precise observation of course of disease
no loss of information
![Page 30: Mobile palliative care teams in Germany1301.nccdn.net/4_4/000/000/019/7e3/0940-Rockmann... · Germany at a glance… 82 Mio inhabitants 900.000 die / year (10,5 %) 250.000 die from](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022043009/5f9d763916a654138b383ba2/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
„availability“
-how to deal with that?
you don´t have to be available for everyone at
anytime!
different categories of care
![Page 31: Mobile palliative care teams in Germany1301.nccdn.net/4_4/000/000/019/7e3/0940-Rockmann... · Germany at a glance… 82 Mio inhabitants 900.000 die / year (10,5 %) 250.000 die from](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022043009/5f9d763916a654138b383ba2/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

24h on call ???
problem: remote areas or few staff:
• cooperation with emergency doctors
• introduce team / emergency plan
• leave telephone number
• cooperation with GP´s
• may participate in after hours shifts
• cooperation with hospitals
• palliative care units / ED
• cooperation with nursing services

24h on call ???
Keep it simple:
• not everyone needs the full service
• availability by phone sufficient?
• „good night-calls“
• be creative (neighbour, friends…..)
• Emergency plan!
• On demand medication!
