End of Life Care strategy (2008)
The Department of Health has released their national 'End of Life Care Strategy - promoting high quality care for all adults at the end of life'.
Implementation of this strategy will make a step change in access to high quality care for all people approaching the end of life. This should be irrespective of age, gender, ethnicity, religious belief, disability, sexual orientation, diagnosis or socioeconomic depravation. High quality care should be available wherever the person may be: at home, in a care home, in hospital, in a hospice or elsewhere.
