Palliative Care Guidelines

Scottish Palliative Care Guidelines

The National Palliative Care Guidelines have been developed by a multidisciplinary group of professionals working in the community, hospital and specialist palliative care services throughout Scotland and are used in all Scottish Health Boards. A free App is available to download.

The guidelines have been developed in accordance with AGREE criteria and are supported by Healthcare Improvement Scotland and the Scottish Partnership for Palliative Care.

A selective update to the guidelines is now complete and the revised content was published in March 2019.

The Scottish Palliative Care Guidelines, including the revised content, are all available at:
