The postgraduate course in Palliative Care is presented as a new option in the area of medical specialties, its work is carried out in different conditions from those of the rest of the specialties, since it implies direct and constant contact with people with limited life expectancy, it seeks to care instead of healing and is located in diverse environments where it is closely related to the community, for all this the specialist must have both scientific capacity and very particular personal qualities that allow him to integrate interdisciplinary palliative care teams.
The specialist must acquire expertise in three fundamental axes: the physical one, where symptom control stands out with an emphasis on pain management; the psycho-socio-spiritual axis, where the application of communication tools stands out; and self-care both on a personal and team level, all immersed in an ethical and human vision.
