The National
Consensus Project for Quality Palliative Care has developed new
clinical practice guidelines entitled, Clinical Practice
Guidelines for Quality Palliative Care. These guidelines,
released in May of 2004, were developed through consensus of
five major U.S. palliative care organizations, and describe core
precepts and structures of clinical palliative care programs.
