• Art therapy sessions at hospices provide meaningful psychosocial support for palliative care patients with life-limiting conditions, offering potential benefits for quality of life and wellbeing
• Creative activities in end-of-life care settings can address psychological and emotional needs beyond symptom management, complementing standard hospice services
• Integrating arts-based interventions into hospice programmes may represent a low-cost, accessible approach to holistic patient care that warrants consideration in palliative care settings
