Palliative Care Perspectives from Palliative Care Specialist
	•Focused on the idea of a 'good death', achieving that for the patient, and ensuring symptoms are adequately treated -a 'good death' comes in many different forms
	•Important factors include supportive family, location, level of care, skilled carers, and specialist support provided at a local level
	•Care is an ecosystem -patient and family right at the centre of that, everything else needs to build around that and recognise a cultural/religious/social context
	•Important for an individual to be able to recognise they are approaching final 12 months, and to be empowered to have discussions, make decisions about advanced care.
