AnnotationThe End of Life Care Strategy from the Department of Health (DH) is to allocate £286 million to proving high quality care for all adults approaching the end of life. In these two articles, the authors offer a critique of this long-awaited policy, and find that it is hampered by concepts that are difficult to define, and is poorly researched, being based on insufficient evidence.
