2023-06-07

7. Every institution must offer end-of-life care and ensure that it is provided to the persons requiring it in continuity and complementarity with any other care that is or has been provided to them.

For this purpose, an institution must, among other things, establish measures to promote a multiple-discipline approach by health and social services professionals and the collaboration of the various other resources concerned who provide services to its users.

If the institution is a public institution, it must establish an interdisciplinary group composed of experts whose functions are to support and accompany, on request, the health or social services professionals or the other resources concerned who take part in the end-of-life care provided. Such a group supports and accompanies, on request, any professional or other resource concerned practising or exercising their functions in a centre operated by a private institution or in a palliative care hospice.
