Titles: Bereaved Family Member
Satisfaction Survey.
OMB Control Number: 2900–0701.
Type of Review: Revision.
Abstract: The death rate for Veterans
will continue to grow as the number of
Veterans 85 years of age and older is
projected to increase by 32 percent
between 2009 and 2018. Given this
trend, the VA will face substantial
challenges in providing care to Veterans
near the end of life. For example,
extensive data from non-VA health care
systems demonstrates that physical
symptoms like pain, dyspnea and
nausea are common in advanced illness,
but are under-recognized and
inadequately managed. Other studies
have found that providers often lack the
time and communication skills to
discuss goals of care and treatment
preferences with patients and families;
there is strong evidence that when
providers fail to discuss goals of care
with patients and families, patients
often receive unwanted, aggressive lifesustaining treatment that is not
consistent with their preferences. A
related problem has been the high
incidence of deaths in an acute care
setting. As many Veterans approaching
end of life may prefer a more quiet and
comfortable setting than can be
provided in acute care, with improved
communications and availability of
services much of this end of life care
could be shifted to a VA hospice unit or
to hospice in the Veteran’s home. The
VA has been and continues to be a
leader among healthcare systems in the
provision of hospice and palliative care.
National VA initiatives have been
implemented and continue to support
the development and expertise of
palliative care consult teams.
