Expanding access to services
Palliative and end of life care patients need access to care 24 hours a day. Find out how hospices have been expanding their services and making it easier for patients and carers to make contact.
Partnerships and mergers
Working in partnership helps hospices increase their influence, reduce duplication of effort and support each other. Mergers can enable services to continue if a hospice is in danger of closing. Read our examples of different approaches.
Workforce
Find out how hospices have innovated to make sure the right people are around the patient - solving workforce challenges such as recruitment, retention and development.
Working with communities and volunteers
Hospices are a valuable part of their local communities, providing much more than end of life care. Find examples of how hospices have worked with and in their local communities.
