Useful contribution to the issue of operationalising palliative care for people living in rural communities with issues around how specialist and primary palliative care can work together.
The key elements which signal improved care outcomes are: care coordination; care planning; digital health; and using methods to prepare, inform and motivate patients and families. #hpm #hapc buff.ly/3QuGhcG

By 2040 over 60% of people may be able to die at home if current progress continues - but we need more support for people at home and in care homes.

Fliss Murtagh. "Early palliative care" should be called "on time palliative care". #MCRSM19

Positive outcomes from models of palliative care strongly associated with community resources. Fascinating talk from Fliss Murtagh. #MCRSM19

A privilege to be here at Palliative Care in Partnership in Belfast. Great focus on transforming #palliativecare from policy to practice. #pallcareweek
At what point does support for people with long term conditions become early palliative care? @timwarren2020 reminds us of "umbrella conversations" - to be carried on, not just when it's raining, but when it might rain @kirstyedinpall1 livingwellincommunities.com/… via @LWiC_QI
