American Journal of Hospice and Palliative Medicine®
Palliative & Hospice Nursing | Palliative Medicine | Palliative Medicine & Chronic Care
The American Journal of Hospice & Palliative Medicine is a monthly, peer-reviewed journal. In 40 years of publication, AJHPM has highlighted the interdisciplinary team approach to hospice and palliative medicine as related to the care of the patient and family. This journal, therefore, appeals to members of the team including physicians, nurses, pharmacists, social workers, pastoral counselors, psychologists, program administrators, and any other specialty involved in this care. Editorials, commentaries, opinions, original research articles, ongoing topical series, and review articles are the format of AJHPM. With changes in health care, aging of the population and the chronicity of a wide array of diseases, AJHPM provides a stimulating and educational forum to maintain relevance in the field of hospice and palliative medicine.
This journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE)
