End of life treatment and care: Good practice in decision-making A draft for consultation

La Description:

Good end-of-life care helps patients with life-limiting conditions to live as well as possible until they die, and to die with dignity. This guidance is intended to support doctors’ decision-making and help them to provide patients with high quality end-of-life care, including involvement of and support for those close to the patient (family members, carers and others who have an interest in their welfare). Providing this care means facing decisions which may be clinically complex and emotionally distressing and the guidance explores how doctors can address these issues.
