Emergency department to integrate palliative care

Question

You are orienting a new staff member in the emergency department to integrate palliative care into critical care. Which of the nurse's statements correctly reflects a principle of palliative care? We're busy because most people prefer to die in a hospital rather than at home where they would be a burden. Death and dying are not discussed much here in order to maintain hope for patients and families. Because our patients often are uncomfortable, they need physical care more than psychological or spiritual care. Patients may receive palliative care concurrent with curative treatment.
