Achieving the Gold Standard of end-of-life care for people with dementia living in care homes

Description

Care homes play a major role in supporting people with dementia at the end of their lives. Seeking to understand the views of staff on the care they provide, Nicola Wheeler and Jan R Oyebode held focus groups with a range of staff in nine care homes in the West Midlands. Here they discuss their findings and implications for practice.
