Σύνοψη	The Support Team Assessment Schedule (STAS) is a clinician-rated observational instrument assessing the impact of palliative care support on patients with advanced illness and their families across seven key domains: pain, symptoms, anxiety, family well-being, communication, and support adequacy. Developed by Baker, Speck, and Cohen in 1997, the STAS has become a standard quality-of-life outcome measure in community palliative care, hospice, and research, enabling teams to systematically monitor the effectiveness of their interventions and identify patients and families in crisis.	The Comfort Care Checklist is a bedside verification tool designed to ensure comprehensive comfort and dignity in the final hours to days of life. Developed by hospice and palliative care organizations, particularly within the End-of-Life Nursing Education Consortium (ELNEC), the checklist systematically verifies that pain and other symptoms are managed, family is present and supported, spiritual needs are addressed, and documentation reflects the patient's and family's wishes—ensuring nothing essential is overlooked during the most vulnerable time.
