End of Life Care Strategy

The Department of Health recently published a comprehensive strategy on end of life care for adults in England.

The 'End of Life Care Strategy - promoting high quality care for all adults in England' was published in July 2008. The work has been led by the Department of Health’s national cancer director, Professor Mike Richards.

 

The Strategy provides guidance to commissioners and providers on how to improve end of life care at a local level. 

 

What we are doing

We are working with government and our members as part of the

implementation of the Strategy, and are currently monitoring the development of the Department of Health's End of Life Care Implementation Advisory Board.
