End of Life care means support for people who are in the last months or years of their life. It should help the person decide how to live as well as is possible and the die with dignity. In working on the care plan, those planning end of life care should take the individual's wishes and preferences into account.  Support should also be given to family, carers or others important to the person. 

It is the right of the person to express their wishes about the plane in which they would like to receive care and where they wish to die. Depending on needs and wishes, end of life care can be provided at home in a care home, a hospital or in a hospice.
