Your palliative care physician needs to know about your condition but also about you and your family’s expectations, hopes and understanding. History taking will focus initially on your condition and your current symptoms. They will also ask about past medical history, medications, allergies, social and family history. Next it is important to establish what are your main concerns so these can be addressed individually and completely.
