Under the leadership of Professor Mike Richards, the Department of Health has devised an End of Life Strategy which is designed to set a standard of care for adults dying in England and Wales. Here are brief details of the Strategy and links to the Department of Health website.
The Strategy is designed to ensure that all dying patients receive the best of care whether receiving palliative care or acute care, building on the work of hospices and the various care frameworks, including:
The Gold Standards Framework
Preferred Priorities of Care
National End of Life Care Programme (takes you to the National End of Life care website)
Advance Care Planning (please see bottom of the page for guidance for health and social care staff)
