  abstract: This volume identifies and explores ethical themes in the structure and delivery of hospice care in the United States. As the fastest growing sector in the US health care system, in which over 40% of patients who die each year receive care in their final weeks of life, hospice care presents complex ethical opportunities and challenges for patients, families, clinicians, and administrators. Thirteen original chapters, written by 17 hospice experts, offer guidance and analysis that promotes best ethical practice for hospice organisations and professionals.
