answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/01/2019 answer text <p>Much of the palliative care patients receive will be provided either in outpatient or community settings, by nurses, community teams or general practitioners as part of general NHS services provision, rather than as an identified palliative care service. In such services, data are either not available or do not identify palliative treatment. In addition, social and voluntary sector organisations can provide additional support to patients and the end of life. Therefore, figures for the total cost of palliative care service for children nationally, or across boroughs, is not available.</p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 30/01/2019 14:46:00 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/11/2018 answer text <p>As with the vast majority of NHS services, the funding and commissioning of palliative and end of life care, is a local matter, over which individual National Health Service commissioners have responsibility.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/11/2016 answer text <p>The Government set out its commitment to everyone at the end of life in the Government response to the independent Review of Choice in End of Life Care and pledged to support local leaders to prioritise and improve end of life care.</p><p> </p><p>Levels of National Health Service funded hospice care provision are determined locally by clinical commissioning groups, and they are responsible for ensuring that the services they commission meet the needs of their local population. Commissioners should identify any gaps in local provision and put in place service development plans to address this identified need. NHS England is developing a per-patient funding system for palliative care, which will support greater quality and choice in end of life care. The aim has been to ensure that palliative care in all settings, including hospices, is funded fairly and transparently.</p><p> </p><p>The Government also promotes the National Palliative and End of Life Care Partnership’s <em>Ambitions for Palliative and End of Life Care: a national framework for local action 2015-2010</em> which sets out six ‘ambitions’ for local delivery of end of life care. The Partnership encourages Health and Wellbeing Boards, chaired by local authority members, to apply the Ambitions Framework to their local area to ensure everyone receives high quality, compassionate and personalised care.</p> answering member constituency Warrington South answering member printed David Mowat question first answered 30/11/2016 14:58:39 answering member 4080 label Biography information for David Mowat
