Ageing Well Team

The Ageing Well Team, as part of the NHS Gloucestershire Integrated Care Board, has shared this information in recognition that delivering good end of life care requires a system-wide approach.

A range of agencies are often involved at the end of a person’s life. This will include different parts of the NHS, including GPs, community services and hospitals, also care providers in the community or care homes, councils, hospices and voluntary sector organisations. Of course, there is critical involvement from the individual and their family and friends. The pattern and scope of involvement will vary for every individual, but for people to have a ‘good’ death all the parts need to work together.

The free resources listed in the Useful Links section have been developed to help you navigate the training and support available across the system. Where we have targeted information for specific organisations, this is made clear on the framework.
