The key elements which signal improved care outcomes are: care coordination; care planning; digital health; and using methods to prepare, inform and motivate patients and families. #hpm #hapc buff.ly/3QuGhcG

By 2040 over 60% of people may be able to die at home if current progress continues - but we need more support for people at home and in care homes.

At what point does support for people with long term conditions become early palliative care? @timwarren2020 reminds us of "umbrella conversations" - to be carried on, not just when it's raining, but when it might rain @kirstyedinpall1 livingwellincommunities.com/… via @LWiC_QI
