NCT ID NCT07342985
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study interviews staff and caregivers at two medicalized residential facilities in Alsace, France, to understand what helps or hinders creating care plans for vulnerable patients receiving palliative care. Researchers will analyze conversations to identify key factors like staffing, relationships, and facility resources. No treatments or medications are being tested—the goal is simply to learn how care planning works in these settings.
