In our research on Chronic Illness and Palliative Care we are helping to bring high quality palliative care to a broader range of under-served populations, for example in our research on supportive decision-making with patients with dementia in residential care and people with advanced heart disease and advanced kidney disease. Our research team has also conducted world leading trials on nurse-led interventions to support patients to manage and prevent deterioration of hear t disease. Equally, our research highlights the necessary supports for family carers with whom the health service must work hand in hand to provide effective and compassionate care- see Cancer Caring Coping.
