What's happening in Palliative Care?
MARC project: READY Recognising Patients at Risk of Dying
This project supports clinical staff to recognise dying through a validated prognostic tool. Using interviews and audits of healthcare records the first MARC end-of-life project identified gaps in care service provision and in the documentation of older people’s care preferences towards the end of life. Considerable difficulties in the recognition of dying were highlighted.
