Recognising their valuable role as key informants, this study examines the perspectives of front-line palliative care providers (FLPCP) regarding a social benefit programme in Canada designed to support family caregivers at end-of-life, namely the Compassionate Care Benefit (CCB). The CCB’s purpose is to provide income assistance and job security to family caregivers who take temporary leave from employment to care for a dying family member.
