      abstract = {Palliative care for the elderly is a critical aspect of healthcare that aims to improve the quality of life for individuals with serious, life-limiting illnesses. Effective palliative care management requires an interdisciplinary approach, addressing both the physical and emotional needs of elderly patients. However, the implementation of palliative care in this population faces numerous challenges, such as insufficient staffing, inadequate training, and limited access to specialized care, especially in rural or underserved areas. Despite these barriers, various strategies have been proposed to improve the quality and accessibility of palliative care for the elderly. Key strategies include enhancing education and training for healthcare professionals, integrating palliative care services into routine care, and strengthening family involvement in decision-making processes. This article reviews recent research on the challenges and strategies for managing palliative care for the elderly, with a focus on nursing roles, care models, and policy recommendations. By examining the literature, it becomes clear that while progress has been made, significant gaps remain in ensuring equitable and high-quality palliative care for the elderly. The findings highlight the need for continued advocacy for better resources, staff training, and policy reforms to ensure that the elderly receive compassionate, comprehensive care during the final stages of life.},
