Patient Dignity Inventory

The Patient Dignity Inventory is an assessment tool that is easily administered (as either a self report or an instrument that could be read aloud) to help quantify the extent to which symptom distress, concerns about dependency, peace of mind, and social support are a problem for the person.

To read more about this assessment tool and research of its use, please see the Virtual Hospice Exchange article authored by Dr. Harvey Chochinov (link below).
