Resources for palliative and end of life care nurses
We have resources for palliative and end of life care nurses who support people with life-limiting conditions, including treatable but not curable cancer.
Best practice for palliative and end of life care
We have developed a best practice resource for clinicians and healthcare professionals involved in any aspect of cancer care in the last years of life. This resource includes:
- case studies and examples of best practice
- research from leading charities and organisations
- updates on innovation and quality improvement initiatives
- e-learning courses, training and webinars.
We aim for this resource to support you in educating, advising on and highlighting best practice in palliative and end of life care across the UK.
Innovation in cancer care resources
We invest in programmes and services to help professionals adopt new and innovative ways to deliver cancer care in the UK. Working in communities and with the NHS, we fund pilots to improve experiences and outcomes for people with cancer. With this knowledge, we have created tools and resources to help you deliver:
ACCEND programme
Funded by NHS England and co-delivered with Macmillan, the Aspirant Cancer Career and Education Development (ACCEND) programme provides clear and transparent guidance and direction on the knowledge, skills and capabilities required by healthcare professionals who care for people affected by cancer.
