End of Life Briefing
Nearly every person will require End of Life Care (EoLC). It is the care given to a person in the last hours, days, months or years of their life. It is particularly important to consider because the Coronavirus Pandemic has changed the state of healthcare today.
It has not only changed what people die from but also the way that people die, and where people die. In order to understand the needs relating to EoLC, it is important to look at the state of end of life care in England and then compare this with the local East Sussex picture.
This briefing will focus on current local and national mortality statistics in comparison with recent years.
