תקציר	The Caregiver Quality of Life Index–Cancer (CQOLC) is a 35-item self-report measure specifically designed to assess the quality of life and burden experienced by family members caring for cancer patients. Developed by Weitzner and colleagues in 1999, the CQOLC captures the multifaceted impact of caregiving—physical strain, emotional toll, disruption of daily activities, financial hardship, and positive adaptation—making it essential for identifying caregiver distress and tailoring support interventions.	The Needs Assessment Tool for Palliative Care (NAPC) is a comprehensive, multidomain assessment framework designed to systematically identify unmet palliative and supportive care needs in patients with advanced illness and their families. Rather than a numerical scale, the NAPC functions as a structured clinical interview and resource allocation guide, helping palliative care teams deliver holistic, person-centered care by addressing physical, psychological, social, spiritual, and practical dimensions simultaneously.
