Abstract
Palliative care involves physicians and nurses making unique and positively synergistic contributions to the care of families expecting an infant with a lifeâlimiting diagnosis. Clinicians share ethical perspectives regarding PPC and are positioned to collaboratively develop PPC programs. Barriers to PPC delivery exist and clinicians can benefit from interventions aimed at modifying practice environments. Supportive interventions and educational initiatives may increase clinician comfort and confidence with palliative care delivery.
