General practitioners (GPs) are central to continuity of care, yet time pressure and organisational constraints can challenge person-centred practice grounded in relational familiarity with patients and families.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objectives:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study aims to explore how GPs navigate the relational familiarity in home-based palliative care and whether it functions as a basis or a bias for individualised care.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Design and methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A secondary hermeneutic analysis was conducted, utilising data from two qualitative studies involving 21 GPs. These datasets focused on dignity-preserving care and shared decision making in palliative contexts.

(2) Variability in engagement and follow-up, which reflected differences in individual GPs\u2019 interests, systemic constraints and the involvement of other healthcare professionals. While relational familiarity facilitated person-centred care, it was unevenly distributed, creating disparities in the quality of care.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Relational familiarity is key to person-centred palliative care, fostering trust and continuity. However, it can blur boundaries, create emotional strain and contribute to inequities compounded by systemic challenges. Interdisciplinary collaboration and flexible care models are needed to adapt to patient needs and ensure equitable access. Future research should examine the impact of relational familiarity and the role of systemic reforms to enhance palliative care.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/26323524261426398","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,28]],"date-time":"2026-02-28T16:36:13Z","timestamp":1772296573000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["General practitioners\u2019 relational familiarity with home-dwelling patients in the palliative phase: Basis \u2013 or bias \u2013 for individualised care"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0529-3303","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Katrine","family":"Staats","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Science, Department of Nursing and Health Promotion, OsloMet \u2013 Oslo Metropolitan University, Kjeller, Norway"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-5879-6941","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sandra Jahr","family":"Svendsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Science, Department of Nursing and Health Promotion, OsloMet \u2013 Oslo Metropolitan University, Kjeller, Norway"},{"name":"Lillestr\u00f8m Municipality, Lillestr\u00f8m, Norway"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2336-0194","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Veronica","family":"Lockertsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Science, Department of Nursing and Health Promotion, OsloMet \u2013 Oslo Metropolitan University, Kjeller, Norway"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","unstructured":"World Health Organization.
