"Anne's contribution to our understanding of the needs of young
people with cancer has been unparalleled and without her
extraordinary insights our services would be that much poorer."
From the foreword by Simon Davies, CEO Teenage Cancer Trust This
topical and timely text provides valuable insights into the choices
and experiences of palliative and end of life care for young people
with cancer and other life limiting illnesses. With a focus on
palliative care provision across a range of different clinical
settings, this comprehensive new resource explores care in the
home, the hospice and hospital. It looks at how and where families
and young people can access palliative care, and what support is
offered to attain their preferred place of death. Bereavement
support for families is discussed, as well as a discussion of
multi-disciplinary work, interagency co-operation and resource
issues. This will be essential reading for community children's
nurses, specialist palliative care teams, children's hospices,
school nurses, social workers and student nurses as well as
families. * A comprehensive resource on end of palliative are
