Abstract

New innovative models of people-centred integrated palliative care, involving health and social care staff working together with sensitized community networks, are flourishing around the world. Palliative care shows the way forward in the design of a service delivery model truly embedded in the emerging integrated care paradigm. The integrated palliative care model proposed in this chapter involves a set of professional health and social care services, which envelop the support and assistance of family and volunteers from an empowered community capable of caring for their families and neighbours.
