Although many patients with terminal cancers desire to be cared for at home, frequently, such patients cannot be shifted to home care due to their unstable symptoms. In severe cases, emergency hospitalizations may be frequently required after introducinghome medical care. We report a case of makinghome medical care difficult due to repeated emergency hospitalizations despite of the patient's deep desire. Interviews were conducted with both the oncologist in charge of the case and a home physician, and their viewpoints were compared. For patients and their families to achieve desired livingconditions, it was considered necessary to give supportive medical care that meet their desires until the end of their lives as mutual viewpoints are taken in a good balance.
