This handbook is an essential guide to caring for the community palliative care patient in relation to COVID-19, when the patient's preferred place of care is at home or the hospice. It will guide you through appropriate care procedures and protocols in managing end-of-life patients who show symptoms of COVID-19.
Key features include:
- Difficult conversations and communication skills
- Symptom management
- Advance care planning
- Caring for stable patients with palliative needs and those who are at end-of-life
- Supporting the family and friends of the patient
- Your own well-being as a healthcare professional
Supported by applicable case studies from a range of community care settings, this guide will be relevant to anyone affected by the challenges of COVID-19 when managing end-of-life patients or caring for older people, including paramedics, nurses and palliative care providers.
