| Annotation | The NHS End of Life Care (EoLC) Programme (2004-2007) is part of an overall strategy to give people greater choice in their place of care and death, and to provide training for health and social care staff in helping care for people at the end of their lives. This guide from the NHS End of Life Care (EoLC) Programme Care Homes sub-group is aimed at care home managers and staff interested in improving care for those care home residents in the final stages of life. It provides: an overview of terms associated with end of life care; case studies on services available; and a list of information sources. (RH). |
