Updated End-of-Life Essentials module: Patient mental health

End-of-Life Essentials has updated its Patient Mental Health education module for healthcare professionals. The free, evidence-based and peer-reviewed module explores how to identify when additional support may be needed and provides practical guidance for compassionate, person-centred care.

Anxiety, depression and demoralisation are common for people living with life-limiting illness, yet symptoms can sometimes be overlooked.

The module also highlights the importance of self-care and supporting colleagues, recognising that caring for dying patients can be emotionally challenging for healthcare professionals.

This updated module is a valuable resource for cancer nurses and multidisciplinary teams providing care for people with advanced cancer or life-limiting illness.
