Report: Fresh eyes approach: caring to the end - shining a spotlight on bereavement and mortuary services

The Fresh Eyes method is part of a Hospice UK and NHS End of life Care project to improve care for patients at end of life, cared for in acute NHS hospitals.  It undertakes a "walk through" of a potential patient / relatives journey. This report summarises Hospice UK’s learning from their walk through of post death care, bereavement centres and mortuary services in 12 acute hospital trusts across England, taking part in two end of life care hospital improvement programmes supplemented with an analysis of mortality data.  Published November 2019.
