This seminar examined the future of the funding, commissioning and delivery of services for palliative and end of life care.
Following the release of the Government's review into the Liverpool Care Pathway, delegates discussed the next steps for policy in end of life care, including the progress of the Department of Health pilot sites, and the next steps for implementing the new system for funding palliative care by 2015. Further sessions focused on the commissioning and delivery of services in the reformed NHS, and key issues such as regional variations, improving patient experiences, and ensuring that there is not a short-fall in numbers of specialist end of life care teams.
