Activity description Quality of pain management at the end of life may vary in sociodemographic groups that are often underrepresented. Barriers to care in interracial settings include lack of trust in the health care system, cultural factors including spirituality and the concept of hope, lack of knowledge about services offered, lack of a diverse hospice staff, and access issues.
