Great paper from @UHSussex @drol007 and team - ⬆⬆ unplanned ED use in last 90 days of life regardless of condition; 10 primary care contacts in last yr ⬇ likelihood of death in 🏥; palliative care registers don’t impact on dying in 🏥 but do ⬇ unplanned emergency admissions
Our new research. Anticipatory medications were administered to 59.9 % (100/167) patients. 11 had medications started months before death for recorded reversible non-end-of-life care conditions

We don’t always get things right and I really want to encourage people continue to speak to us about these issues so we can make the right decisions for our patients and staff.
