As someone approaches the end of their life, it is vitally
important that they receive quality care and support, that their
wishes are met, and that they are treated with dignity and respect.
Pathways through Care at the End of Life is a comprehensive guide
to providing excellent, person-centred end of life care. Following
a pathway from initial conversations about end of life to care in
the last days of life and after death, it covers assessing need and
planning care, co-ordinating care between different agencies, and
ensuring quality in different settings, such as at home, in a
hospice, or in hospital. Good practice guidance on communication,
ensuring the person's needs are met, support for their family and
how to facilitate a good death is given. Case studies illustrate
real life practice, and questions throughout each chapter encourage
reflective practice. This book will be essential reading for all
those working with people at the end of life, such as nurses,
social workers, GPs and home carers, as well as students in these
fields.
