All people require evidence-based and personcentred care at the end of their lives, and it is recognised that appropriate care should be based on appropriate need. The National Palliative Care Strategy represents the commitment of the Commonwealth, state and territory governments to ensuring the highest possible level of palliative care is available to all people. |
| 82 | Opinion of the Working Group on Ethics in Research and Medicine on Palliative care in the European Union Te research carried out in the past few years tends to confrm the absence of unexpected premature deaths when patients are sedated in accordance with good professional practice. However, sedation reduces the patient's consciousness and awareness of his environment, and also hampers his ability to express himself. |

We then outline competencies needed for ethical and effective psychological practice with patients and families at all stages of serious illness, and we provide strategies to assist psychologists in acquiring these competencies. |

| 88 | PAIN & SYMPTOM CONTROL GUIDELINES - Palliative Care The main focus of these guidelines is the easing of pain and other symptoms in the patient with advanced cancer. Much of the symptom control advice here may be extrapolated to other terminal illnesses - with a degree of caution, bearing in mind the specific pathophysiological stresses that specific illnesses may cause. This is a set of guidelines and not protocols. There are often alternative ways to manage symptoms that may be appropriate and advised by specialists. |
