Description
Maho Aoyama and four co-authors publish the protocol for Japan's fifth nationwide survey of hospice quality, judged by bereaved families, in a 2024 paper. The survey series has run every three to four years since 2010, turning grief into data that improves care. This round spans one hundred fifty-three institutions.
Families receive an anonymous questionnaire after a relative's death in hospice or palliative care. The study evaluates the structures, processes, and outcomes of care, and also the families' own grief and depression as outcomes of bereavement support. Each institution gets feedback benchmarked against the whole, fueling local improvement. Beyond quality control, the dataset supports research on open questions in palliative care. The protocol paper fixes the design in public before results arrive.
