Annotation | As ethnic minority populations age in the UK, how can we ensure that they receive responsive end-of-life care? This article discusses findings from the Stories that Matter, a project that used narrative interviews to collect the experiences of life-limiting illness and care among ethnic minority elders, carers, and social and health care professionals. It highlights the ways in which social work can support the care choices of older people from ethnic minorities. The project was managed by the Policy Research Institute on Ageing and Ethnicity (Priae) and funded by the Department of Health (DH). (RH). |
