🌿 Transforming End-of-Life Care in Care Homes 🌿 

In the UK, many care home residents face their final months without the vital support of hospice teams – which can lead to unnecessary distress for them and their families. But it doesn’t have to be this way. 

✨ Imagine a care model that ensures every resident receives compassionate, personalised palliative care - right where they live. 

That’s what Palliative Care Needs Rounds deliver. Developed from an Australian model, this approach has been adapted for use in the UK by the University of Stirling. With ten years of dedicated research into the approach, this innovative model brings specialist teams directly into care homes, creating tailored plans for each resident’s final months and days. 

✅ Research shows Needs Rounds: 

  • Boost staff skills and confidence 
  • Strengthen collaboration between care homes and hospices 
  • Enhance residents’ quality of life and death 
  • Support families to plan with clarity and compassion 
  • Enable residents to die in their preferred place 

🎓 Join Professor Liz Forbat, Principal Investigator, and David Wilson-Wynne in this free webinar to discover how Needs Rounds are changing the future of palliative care—and how you can be part of it. 

👉 Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how to bring dignity, compassion, and choice into the last chapter of life. 


*This webinar will be recorded and made available onilne after the event.
