Palliative and End of Life Care

Palliative care is about improving the quality of life of anyone facing a life-limiting condition. It includes physical, emotional, social, spiritual care as well as practical support.  

We want our people of Coventry and Warwickshire to live as well as possible for as long as possible.

End-of-life care is the treatment, care and support for people who are nearing the end of their lives. It is an important part of palliative care and aims to help people live as comfortably as possible in their last months, weeks or days of life and to die with dignity.

The Coventry and Warwickshire Palliative and End of Life Care Strategy is an overview of how health and social care will work together with our communities across Coventry and Warwickshire to improve the lives of people with palliative and end of life care needs and those who look after them. 

This Strategy has been developed with input from a wide range of partners, considering the experiences and insight shared by individuals, relatives, carers and local people. 

Our survey is now closed, thank you for your feedback, we are collating all the feedback received and will publish the final Palliative and End of Life Care Strategy in due course, but in the meantime if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.
