First bluesky post! My new editorial with Catherine Evans and @proflizsampson.bsky.social calls out the misuse of 'person-centred care' in policy and outcome measurement as vague and oversimplified, especially for those with dementia.

#HPM #palliative #endoflife reflecting on my weekend working. #assiteddying has come up a lot both for & against but specifically about empowering ppl to make decisions about how they live until they die. Conversations can be hard, but can done as a co-navigator of their lives

This is a great thread We found across specialisms people needing palliation that proactive case management by CNS was a much better option than routine OP and patients had more equitable access to care & MDT if required #CNSValue

Assisted Dying Bill, Is assisted dying a ‘choice’ when there is a pressing need for funding for palliative care services? Charities & community services face resource constraints, shortage of district nurses, & primary care systems under huge strain. Adequate social care remains a critical concern.

On assisted dying I'm genuinely open to all debate and have no fixed view but many of the egs given are people who already have choice in their lives or power over what happens to them in other areas. How does this interact with poverty/complex social backgrounds/difficult family dynamics etc.

These are noble goals & values, but hard to operationalize. Individualized needs-based assessment is time-intensive & dependent on referral sources being willing to do the work. There is an infinite amount of need in healthcare. #PalliativeCare workforce is not always staffed to take all that on.

You talk about palliative care as a specific team of providers. Some folks need specialist palliative care, but everyone with advanced illness needs and deserves a palliative approach. This is a shared responsibility. There are many benefits, including better, more efficient health resource use.

“Individualized needs-based assessment” should be an essential component of all health care. Our systems are designed to place patients into boxes. We need to change the paradigm of all care to a person-centred model rather a systems-centred one. Idealism, btw is absolutely necessary.
