The End of Life Care Strategy published by the Department of Health recognised that care for dying people was rather fragmented, with some patients receiving excellent care and others not having access to such high quality. This needs to change so that all GPs and healthcare professionals are trained to give the optimum care that patients deserve at the end of life, ensuring equality for all.
As a Centre of Excellence with many highly trained and specialised staff, it is part of our remit to improve palliative care in our community. One of the ways we do this is through the provision of training programmes.
