The early palliative care programme

The intervention consists of an early integration of a palliative care programme with the standard care performed by the oncologists-pneumologists that are following the cancer patients. The intervention will be delivered by the specialised Palliative Care Unit (PCU) of the hospital. Each patient meets the professionals of the PCU by 30 days by cancer diagnosis and at least monthly thereafter in the outpatint settings.
