Palliative medicine and nursing specialists can be expert guides, teachers, leaders, and developers of best practice, but improving end-of-life care is clearly everyone’s business, writes @mancunianmedic

Good to see discussion about death and dying in the news: What we can all learn from this deathbed photo. (Spoiler alert: it’s actually a heartwarming story!) bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-cana…

Volunteers are unequally distributed across end of life care settings. @cewalshe notes that her local hospice, 10 beds, has 700 volunteers. Her local care home, 60 beds, has 3 volunteers.

I’ll be giving a public talk in Cambridge on 12th Nov about death, dying, symptoms, society, policy and palliation. Come!
Is there a 'right time' to talk about death? What would it mean to society if we had spoke about death earlier? We are welcoming Dr @kesleeman of @CSI_KCL to the Hospice in 12 Nov for a 'Let's talk about death - but why?' event. To join the conversation>>bit.ly/2m1HDQ1
Made our @BBCBreakfast debut this morning talking about the importance of #CMV screening to prevent deafness in #newborn babies. Great work being done @Hearglueear. Thanks also for the lovely congrats @stephbreakfast & best wishes for your pregnancy!

This is a wonderful initiative: a 'make a wish' ambulance to fulfill end of life requests: see a mountain or a concert, go to the beach or a sports game, visit your family or the chip shop.
ambulancewishfoundation.org.…
They are willing to consider all requests.
Pass it on!

This is great news. Not just the money (which let’s face it is 2.5% of what the Hospice sector has to raise annually), but the message. Great that the PM acknowledges funding challenges in the hospice sector, and to have his support. Well done @TraceyBleakley @Peston @hospiceuk
“It’s vital that we support our fantastic and hardworking hospice staff. So today I’m announcing an immediate £25m boost for our hospices and palliative care services.” – PM @BorisJohnson

Such a good article by @charlottechurch, with strong message about palliative care. By sharing her experience, she will make a difference to others. Also, she is totally right about ‘syringe drivers’. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Excellent letter by @SimonNoahEtkind in BMJ on assisted dying "The inequity of care provision at the end of life is neglected in the debate about assisted dying." bmj.com/content/365/bmj.l439…

Imagine a world where the #NHS only part funded cardiology, where 3/4 angioplasties relied on second hand clothing and fun runs.
This is the reality for #EndOfLifeCare
