Measures for end-of-life care services aim to provide compassionate and comprehensive support to individuals nearing the end of their lives and their families. Here are five key measures for expanding end-of-life care services:
1. Palliative care integration: Integrate palliative care into the healthcare system to ensure that individuals with serious illnesses receive holistic support. Palliative care focuses on relieving pain and managing symptoms, addressing emotional and spiritual needs, and providing psychosocial support to enhance quality of life.
2. Training and education: Provide training and education to healthcare professionals, including physicians, nurses, social workers, and caregivers, to enhance their skills in end-of-life care. This includes communication training, pain management education, and training in addressing the emotional and spiritual needs of patients and families.
3. Advance care planning: Encourage and support individuals to engage in advance care planning, which involves discussing and documenting their healthcare preferences and values. This empowers patients to make informed decisions about their end-of-life care and ensures that their wishes are respected.
4. Hospice care expansion: Expand access to hospice care, which focuses on providing comfort and support to individuals with terminal illnesses. This includes increasing the availability of hospice facilities, home-based hospice services, and respite care options for caregivers.
5. Bereavement support: Develop and enhance bereavement support services for families and loved ones after the death of a patient. This may include counseling, support groups, and access to resources that help individuals cope with grief and loss.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?

I have designed a large-scale survey about the life satisfaction of low-income families in Hong Kong. Is it appropriate to use the electronic survey through mobile phones?
