End-of-life care
ثبت نشده
چکیده
A concern with issues associated with the care of people at the end of their life has run throughout the first 7 years of Mortality, with at least one paper on this topic in each volume. The early papers were informed by an interest in palliative care, drawing upon the concerns of the hospice and palliative care movement about how best to provide ‘holistic care’ that addresses social, psychological and spiritual needs as well as the management of physical symptoms. Since 2000, papers on this topic have taken a wider view, looking at end of life care for older people, technology and death policy, bioethics, and the use of do not resuscitate orders.
