| Annotation | The National Council for Palliative Care (NCPC) has been given funding by Lloyds TSB Foundation for a 2-year project. This is NCPC's third publication on dementia, and follows on from "Exploring palliative care for people with dementia" (2006) and "Progress with dementia: moving forward: addressing palliative care for people with dementia" (2007). It outlines the national context and highlights why the project is timely and relevant to developments in palliative and end of life care for people with dementia and their carers. It includes an evaluation tool developed by NCPC which incorporates key elements of palliative and end of life care. Also included are local practice examples and case studies; and perspectives from different partners, from general practitioners (GPs) to specialist researchers. (RH). |
