Final report for the Northwestern International Development Program in Mexico City, under the supervision of Physician Martha de la Torre

Our research objectives for the project were to perform a situational analysis at the Casa de Acogida Hermanas del Buen Samaritano. At the clinic in Malinalco, we were to assess the different types of patients admitted, assess the prevalence of symptoms and pain in the patients, and identify specific obstacles that health care providers face. By doing this, it provides the framework for future improvements in palliative care services not only at this Malinalco clinic but elsewhere as well.
