- The European Council, the World Health Organization, the International Association of Hospice and Palliative Care, and various other national guidelines emphasize equal provision of palliative care. To fulfill this vision, all involved need to be aware of the existing situation even in western European countries. Data from the European Atlas of Palliative Care and the Swedish Registry of Palliative Care are used to illustrate the present inequalities. The data illustrate the unequal provision of palliative care relating to level of care, place of residence, diagnoses, and age. The challenge of providing equal palliative care remains, even in Western European countries, in spite of all positive developments. Different approaches that may contribute to successful implementation of equal palliative care are discussed. The challenge is still there and will require some effort to resolve.
