Abstract

The aim of this study was to develop a staff toolkit for obtaining preferences for place of care and death with palliative care patients. The toolkit was to include guidance and a set of questions acceptable to patients, carers and staff. The objectives were to:

1. Identify issues for collecting preferences from both the perspective of service users (patients and carers) and hospice staff.

2. Create a questionnaire for collecting preferences on place of care and death to be used by hospice staff.
