To finish this assignment, read the scenario below and respond to the specific questions and issues listed. Examine the SOC313 Family Document for details on each member of the family.

Grandmother Ella has had cancer for many years and has used alternative treatments since her diagnosis. Ella went into remission, but the cancer returned and spread to her bones, liver, and lungs. She was taken to the hospital after collapsing from exhaustion. She is being discharged from the hospital because she wants to spend her final days and months at home. Ella has her own preferences for care, despite the fact that she is now so frail that she has given up in many ways. The family members are all grieving and experiencing their own fears as they face the loss that will occur when Ella’s life ends. Ella is stressed out by her family members’ discord and discomfort.

You are the social worker in this case for this assignment. You first meet this family in the hospital. Ella expresses a desire to be cared for at home by the Hospice nurse and health aide. Ella’s husband wants her to go home as well, but several of her children and their spouses want her to stay in the hospital or move to a nursing home so she can receive professional care.

You must use the outline form with subtopic headers from the Week 3 assignment for this assignment. In your work, address the following points:

Synthesize the most recent research relevant to this scenario. Discuss current practices in end-of-life and palliative care from the perspectives of Western medicine as well as complementary and alternative medicine.
