Although the palliative care has been recognized in the Republic of Croatia as an exceptionally necessary and essential branch of medicine during the last several years, it could be argued that it has only recently started gaining significance, its meaningfulness having been noted on an everyday basis. By creating mobile palliative teams this kind of patient care becomes more accessible and thus more purposeful. The key role of palliative teams is improving life quality for patients and their families by monitoring illness symptoms and providing psychological support. The objective of the paper: Since the mobile palliative team of the Health Centre Zagreb-Centar has been active over many years now, the question arises about how much exactly are workers of the Health Centre acquainted with its potential and competences. The aim was to look into the notions and awareness of those workers who most often encounter patients in palliative care: general practitioners, community nurses and nurses employed in general outpatient clinics of the Health Centre, about competences of the Health Centre Zagreb-Centar palliative team and the work it carries through. Working methods: The data shown are the results of a survey conducted in February 2019 on 71 persons employed in the Health Centre Zagreb-Centar out of the 234 foreseen employees. The response rate was 30.3 %. All participants were informed about the research objective and have voluntarily given consent to take part in it. The survey was conducted anonymously in the form of a questionnaire that consisted of 28 questions, the first seven questions referring to general information, and 21 to the viewpoints about statements quoted in the questions. The answers are shown in the form of graphs and tables.
