“…Attributes of emic vulnerability (Spiers, 2005) are evidenced, inter alia, within experiences of inadequate respite care (integrity), the complexity of decision making about whether to transfer a child to a tertiary hospital (challenge), and the resilience of parents throughout the illness-death trajectory of their child's illness as well as the continuity of the trusting relationships that endured throughout this time (capacity for action) and the vulnerabilities associated with circumstances of the category of diagnosis (multidimensionality). Although presented here in a linear style, the findings suggest an iterative experience of vulnerability, which is in accord with the multiple and complex challenges identified within the literature (Bowden & Kavanaugh, 2005;De Graves & Aranda, 2005;O'Leary et al, 2006;Rushton, 2005),…”

“…Health professionals face multiple and complex challenges in the provision of palliative care to children and their families (Bowden & Kavanaugh, 2005;De Graves & Aranda, 2005;O'Leary, Flynn, MacCallion, Walsh, & McQulllan, 2006;Rushton, 2005), although their involvement in such care can also be "a source of profound satisfaction, renewal and affirmation" (Rushton, 2005, p. 311).

In this article the authors present findings on professional carers' experience of providing pediatric palliative care to children with life-limiting conditions. For this qualitative study, part of a national pediatric palliative care needs analysis, the authors engaged in 15 focus group interviews and drew on the responses of open-ended questions to give voice to the experiences of professional carers and to situate the humanity of their caring reality. This humanity is articulated through three themes: clarity of definition and complexity of engagement, seeking to deliver a palliative care service, and the emotional cost of providing palliative care. Further analysis of these themes points to a work-life experience of skilled and emotional engagement with children, and their parents, in complex processes of caregiving and decision making. Pediatric palliative care occurs in an environment where parents shoulder a large burden of the care and professionals find themselves working in underresourced services.
