Abstract
Palliative care has become a standard of care for patients with serious illnesses. However, many rural hospitals do not have access to specialized palliative care consultation. This article describes the journey taken by a palliative care team to improve access to palliative care and overall patient outcomes at rural hospitals throughout the state of South Carolina by using the telehealth modality. The impact, challenges, and benefits of the program are discussed.
