Abstract

The paper is based on mixed-methods analysis, including qualitative (thematic analysis) and quantitative (word frequency and trends analysis), to thoroughly investigate the existing body of literature pertaining to the influence of social media (SM) on palliative care (PC). The time frame of the analysis is for a 5-year (2018–2023). The paper attempts to explore dominating themes and explore how SM has impacted the arena of palliative, how these platforms affect patient and community involvement and how successful digital communication tactics are when used to advocate for PC.
