The Importance of Early Consultation in Palliative Care

When should we be thinking about getting palliative care on board? Yeah. There's a lot of studies, both in pediatrics and adults, it's the earlier the better. The biggest challenge is for the most part, we get consulted at the 11th hour. So if there's time and if people know that there is going to be huge symptom burden or psychosocial burden on the family, it's always important to get us involved early.
