Abstract

The article deals with conceptualization of palliative care as a social institution and the need to incorporate it into the system of national policy of the Russian Federation. A review of theoretical concepts related to palliative care showed that research works are scattered across the fields of medicine, law, philosophy, social work, gerontology and social policy, but a transdisciplinary conceptual model of palliative care, which presents both fundamental concepts and particular issues of institutionalization and professionalization of palliative care in detail, has not yet been established. The article sets key tasks, the solution of which will contribute to the formation of the institute of palliative care, performing the function of ensuring a better quality of life for terminal patients and their families.
