As the personalisation agenda is becoming increasingly important for professionals and organisations providing end of life care, this practical guide offers complete guidelines for providing personalised support.
This book shows professionals working in the community, hospices, hospitals and care homes how to enable individuals to direct their own support and have maximum choice and control towards the end of their lives. Real-life examples show how personalised support can be achieved in different settings, and the authors explore the implications of personal budgets on delivering the best possible care. The book includes important information on current best-practice in Personalised Advanced Care Planning, and shows how to use different tools such as one-page profiles and apps when having conversations with individuals about their own end of life care. The authors also explain how care providers can evaluate the progress of care standards to ensure that the best care possible is being delivered.
