Recommendations<br />
Reflecting upon the findings <strong>of</strong> the preferred place <strong>of</strong> care (PPC) audit, the project group<br />
would like to make the following recommendations:<br />
1. Consider a campaign to raise awareness that St Andrew’s Hospice <strong>of</strong>fers 24<br />
hour telephone palliative care advice, including symptom control.<br />
2. Support the use <strong>of</strong> Anticipatory <strong>Care</strong> Plans.<br />
3. Support District Nurse <strong>Care</strong> Managers in the provision <strong>of</strong> palliative care.<br />
4. Support care homes to meet the end <strong>of</strong> life wishes for their residents.<br />
5. Continue to provide palliative care education which supports best practice in<br />
palliative care for all.<br />
The PPC audit team would like to express their thanks to all who took part.<br />
