To assess teaching efficacy of the consultation service, a\u00a0survey was conducted among 15\u00a0radiation oncology  residents.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Cooperation between the two departments proved to be efficient with rising patient numbers. Palliative care was able to guide appropriate postdischarge care with the number of patients dying on the radiation oncology ward decreasing significantly (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u202f=\u20090.009). The main topics for consultation were pain medication (92.3%), organization of postdischarge care (92.3%), and psycho-oncological support (84.6%). Most residents had a\u00a0positive image of the palliative care service and consented on adjectives like \u201cenriching\u201d, \u201cempathic\u201d, \u201ccollegial\u201d, \u201cprofessionally founded\u201d, and a\u00a0\u201clow threshold for consultation\u201d.
