Review: "The Creative Arts in Palliative Care uncovers the possibilities for using the creative arts and provides guidance on how to implement arts projects successfully. Part One focuses on designing objectives for the creative arts in palliative care - such as fulfillment and other common symptoms - and managing creative arts services. Part Two demonstrates the theory and principles in practice, with detailed case studies; each chapter draws on a real-life project, the approaches it employed and the outcomes achieved." "This book will be essential reading for healthcare professionals, arts practitioners and all those involved in providing palliative care services."--BOOK JACKET.
