Introduction for Carers

Experiencing a need for palliative care for someone you know can be an overwhelming and stressful time. Information about palliative care services and options can reduce fears and help us feel more comfortable making decisions when facing the end-of-life. Having too much information all at once can also be overwhelming. Here we link you to information that may be helpful at different stages of the palliative care pathway. You can use this as an introduction and then explore further when you are ready and depending on what you need. Click on any of the links below to get started.
