Caring for a child at end of life – a guide for professionals on the care of children and young people

Caring for a child at end of life aims to provide a practical toolkit for all practitioners providing end of life care to babies, children and young people.

It sets out key standards and goals for good practice alongside links to useful sources of information, legislation and regulations.

The Guide can be downloaded using the link on the right hand side of the page or you can request a hard copy below. The easy-to-digest one page Practice Prompts found at the end of the Guide can be easily photocopied and shared with colleagues for training.
