This project aims to improve quality of life and wellbeing of terminally ill patients and their families by widening access to 24-hour home-based care. A 'First Contact Team' will seek and manage patient referrals, nursing assistants will be trained to be healthcare assistants, online support will be established, hard to reach groups will be targeted and regular meetings will be held with partners to discuss need and share knowledge. Additional volunteers will be trained to become befrienders.
