Objectives: * Examine the key structures and processes of inpatient pediatric palliative care programs in the United States. * Assess the degree of variation in program delivery, staffing, and patient volumes. * Identify three threats and three opportunities to the standardization of pediatric palliative care practice. Original Research Background: Over the past ten years, health care systems have begun to recognize pediatric palliative care (PPC) programs as the standard of practice in providing high-quality care. Despite this culture shift, little is known about how PPC programs operate, the services they provide, or the staffing required to provide them sustainably. Research Objectives: To examine the key structures and processes of PPC programs.
