Full description:
There is clear national guidance on preventing, detecting, assessing, and managing delirium. However it is difficult for hospices to put this into practice because delirium care is complex. We have designed a way for hospices to overcome these difficulties and follow delirium guidelines better. We are testing if approach this improves delirium care and reduces delirium in hospices. Our trial steering committee oversees the project and includes academics, clinicians and public members.
