End of life Resources Used at Nenagh Hospital (Poster at HFH Conference 2016)Irish Hospice Foundation
A mass is held annually at St. John's Church to remember patients who died at Nenagh Hospital in the previous year. Families are invited and a candle is lit for each deceased person. The hospital also provides training to staff on end-of-life care called "Final Journeys" and over 70 staff have attended. Initiatives to improve end-of-life care at the hospital include annual remembrance masses, staff training, creating a family room, and using symbols and items to provide respect and solemnity during the end-of-life process and after death.
The document outlines the Irish Hospice Foundation's strategic plan for 2013-2016. It identifies three key outcomes: 1) prioritizing palliative care for people with dementia across all care settings, 2) improving end-of-life care for older people in residential care facilities, with a focus on those with dementia, and 3) increasing public awareness of death and dying to encourage early advance care planning, including for those with dementia. The plan details the tools, resources, education and advocacy efforts that will be undertaken to achieve these outcomes over the three year period.
This document discusses an initiative by the Yeats Country Quilters group to donate handmade quilts to the paediatric unit of Sligo University Hospital. The quilts are given to bereaved parents of children who have passed away as a gift of comfort and support. Nursing staff sensitively offer the quilts to parents during the difficult time of their child's death. The initiative has provided compassion and support to grieving parents and has received recognition awards. It demonstrates community spirit and partnership in caring for families experiencing loss.
'HSC Bereavement Network - Celebrating 10 years' (Poster at HFH 2016 Conference)Irish Hospice Foundation
The HSC Bereavement Network was established in 2006 to improve bereavement care in Northern Ireland. Over the next 10 years, the Network worked to establish 6 standards of care and conducted audits and engagement activities. This resulted in new regional policies, training programs, and resources to support bereaved individuals and healthcare staff. Going forward, the Network aims to further raise awareness of available guidance and support, update relevant strategies, and monitor the implementation of best practices for bereavement care across health trusts.
National Standards for Bereavement Care following Pregnancy Loss and Perinata...Irish Hospice Foundation
This document outlines national standards for bereavement care following pregnancy loss and perinatal death in Ireland. It was developed through extensive consultation with healthcare professionals and bereaved families. The standards cover bereavement care across different types of pregnancy loss and perinatal outcomes. They address care areas like diagnosis, information provision, support services, staff training, and multi-disciplinary bereavement teams. The standards aim to establish a framework to guide compassionate and consistent bereavement care nationwide.
Reflections on the National Summary of Patient Activity Data for Adult Specia...Irish Hospice Foundation
The document summarizes key findings from a report analyzing patient activity data for specialist palliative care services in Ireland from 2012-2015. It finds that while access to palliative care has improved, more resources are still needed to meet increasing demand. Over half of new inpatient admissions came from home, showing the role of inpatient units in supporting patient preferences and hospitals. Significant improvements were seen in community palliative care access and wait times. However, disparities remain in access between cancer and non-cancer patients, and by region. Updated staffing guidelines are also needed to guide service provision and support changing places of care.

This document discusses advance healthcare directives (AHDs) in Ireland. It notes that only 6% of people in Ireland have written an AHD. It defines AHDs as documents where a person can write down medical treatments they do not want if they lose decision-making capacity. For an AHD to be legally binding, the person must have had capacity when writing it and it must apply to their current medical situation. The document outlines the requirements for making a valid AHD in Ireland and implications for healthcare professionals, including that they have no liability for complying with a valid AHD or not complying if there are doubts about its validity.
This document provides an overview and updates from a meeting of the HFH Acute Hospital Network. It discusses the HFH programme which supports end of life care in hospitals. It outlines the staff and structure of the HFH programme. It provides an update on activities including outreach, oversight with the HSE, and a feasibility study on enhancing bereavement care in Ireland. It discusses identifying priorities around developing standards, services mapping, and advocacy. The next steps include presenting findings at a bereavement care forum.
This document discusses plans to improve end of life care in Ireland. It notes that a business case for funding is being drafted for submission in 2019 and will be presented to Liam Woods on June 26th. It also mentions that there were over 800 deaths in emergency departments in 2016, and that collaboration between the Health Service Executive and Healthcare for the Future aims to enhance end of life care, learning from practices in England where most admissions in the last year of life are emergencies. An update will be provided to Liam Woods and plans include reducing variability and a business case for end of life care coordinators.
This document discusses end-of-life care (EOLC) in hospitals in Ireland. It outlines the aims of the Healthcare for the Future (HFH) Programme which are to develop standards for EOLC, increase capacity for these standards, and change the culture around dying, death and bereavement. It notes feedback from an outreach officer's visits to 12 hospitals which found varying levels of EOLC implementation and engagement. Examples of positive EOLC developments and ongoing challenges are provided. The document calls for establishing a collective vision and strategy to continue improving EOLC and measuring progress.
Final Journey’s is a staff development workshop for Acute Hospital Staff which raises awareness regarding quality of care at end of life.
Final Journeys was developed by the Irish Hospice Foundation as part of its Hospice Friendly Hospitals programme in 2010.
The workshop is now eight years old and is due for updating and review to ensure the content of the workshop is relevant and fresh.

This document discusses patient involvement in developing information leaflets. It defines patient involvement as enabling people to be actively involved in issues concerning them and decisions affecting their lives. Involving patients demonstrates their unique perspectives, values their expertise, and empowers them. It also ensures resources are relevant and improves relationships, efficiency, and public perception of services. Challenges include difficulties with the concept, perceived criticism, resources, and data protection. The document describes how one organization previously involved patients through workshops and reviews, and how it plans to continue through coalitions.

The document outlines grants provided by the Healthcare Foundation in Ireland (HFH) to various hospitals in Ireland to support end of life care initiatives. It describes several projects funded by HFH including education workshops, bereavement support groups, customized handover bags for families, awareness events, a calming lamp, and study days. It also lists additional end of life care projects, resources, and improvements implemented by hospitals, such as family viewing rooms, bereavement packs, end of life symbol drapes, and participation in national audits.
This document discusses the work of the HSE-HfH Joint Oversight Group. It provides updates on:
- The inaugural and subsequent meetings of the oversight group in 2017.
- Key themes discussed including patient experience, linkages with clinical programs, education/training, and reducing variability in end-of-life care.
- The working relationships between the oversight group and hospital groups/CEOs.
- Demographic trends showing Ireland's aging population and the importance of supporting end-of-life care through initiatives like the HfH program.
The Mater Misericordiae University Hospital and St. James’s Hospital and their academic partners UCD and TCD surveyed bereaved relatives about their experience of end-of-life care in hospital. Results reveal the high standard of care provided in both hospitals and further indicate where improvements could be made to enhance the care experience.
