End of Life Care in Wales
Devolution in Wales has afforded great opportunities and it is
opportune that we should hold this conference to focus how Wales
will develop End of Life Care as the Department of Health in
England will soon be announcing its End of Life Care
Strategy. In the context of caring for an aging population
and improvements on chronic disease management resulting in longer
life expectancy, it is necessary for us all to work together to
find solutions. The Royal College of General Practitioners in Wales
sees this area as a priority and is pleased to work with others,
including the Welsh Assembly Government, in facilitating this
day. We welcome anyone involved or interested in EOLC
whether you are a provider of care, commissioner at an LHB or work
at strategic level. This day provides opportunities for all members
of the Primary and Community Care Teams, Specialists in Palliative
Care, carers, patients and managers to discuss the relevant issues
and together pave a way forward.
