| dc.description | The death of some patients in the ED is inevitable; patients not only present with life-threatening acute illness but EDs are increasingly seeing patients with acute crises of chronic and terminal conditions who are presenting at their end of life. Nursing and medical staff have a significant role to play in providing high-quality evidence-based end of life care to relieve suffering, provide comfort and respect patient’s wishes. Life-saving measures are not always successful or appropriate in ED. This project involves auditing the end-of-life care in ISLHD EDs of 400+ patients who died in hospital within 48 hours of presenting to the ED using our developed and validated end-of-life audit tool. We will then integrate findings of the medical record audit and staff survey to co-design an intervention that addresses the problems to delivering quality end of life care in ISLHD EDs with ED staff and health consumers. A strategy will be designed to implement the intervention informed by the facilitators and barriers identified the previous studies. | en |
