| Annotation | The quality of care experienced at the end of life is frequently characterised by delays, a lack of information and insufficient consideration given to the wishes of patient and family to achieve "a good death". This report was developed by Demos for Sue Ryder, to explore the quality of the patient experience of end of life care services, and what can be done to improve this journey through the different fields of health and social care from the patient's perspective. Early diagnosis, a high level of personalisation and ongoing seamless support are crucial to delivering a good service and reducing inequalities in end of life care.
