摘要：

Most neurologic diseases are incurable. Palliative care is vital in the treatment of companion animals with serious or chronic neurologic disease. A Neuropalliative Care Core Skill Set includes multifaceted communication competencies and symptom management. Because some of the most common clinical signs of neurologic disease are also associated with stress of caregiving, veterinarians should understand their clients' unique potential for caregiver burden. Acknowledging caregiver burden in their clients, means that veterinarians treating patients with neurologic disease must be proactive in building their own resilience to the occupational stress inherent in treating their patients and supporting their patients' caregivers.
