Ambulance services are increasingly providing palliative care, in response to the growing demand for end-of-life and palliative care at home. Some ways that ambulance services are supporting palliative care include:
- Palliative care ambulance services These services provide non-emergency transportation for patients with life-limiting illnesses. They offer a comfortable and dignified journey to the patient’s preferred place of care
- Palliative care referral pathways Paramedics can be connected to localized palliative care referral pathways.
