Quality Improvement Environmental Scan

 

Palliative Care in the Community: An Environmental Scan of Frameworks and Indicators (June 2013)


As part of The Way Forward initiative, this report provides the results of international and national environmental scans. It documents quality frameworks, standards, measures, indicators and instruments being used internationally to support the delivery of palliative care in the community. The international literature review is followed by a national environmental scan of how palliative care is delivered in Canada and the information that exists at the local, provincial/territorial and national level in order to identify tools, indicators and the supporting data currently being used for palliative care.
