This resource has been developed in response to requests from grassroots GPs and practice nurses during consultation sessions for a ‘one stop shop’ to support local practice in end of life care. In addition, the web resource aims to be a means of ongoing support to help GP practices to deliver the kind of care described in the RCGP RCN End of Life Care Patient Charter.

 

The site is a vehicle for highlighting current developments updates and new resources , with practical guidance, links to existing educational and training resources, and signposting to other useful websites and resources.
