About
HPAL enables clinicians and the public to search for the best and most recent information relating to palliative care, quickly and confidently.
Our experts synthesise guidance from nationally recognised sources to improve access to information. We share our top tips from clinical practice along with recommendations for further reading and video resources.
We will do our best to ensure that guidance is revised quickly, and removed once it becomes redundant. There will be occasions where we have missed information and we urge people to use the feedback tab on every post to point out errors or omissions. As always, none of the content within the website replaces clinical judgement when providing patient care.
HPAL can support clinical services but is not a service in it's own right and we do not provide individual clinical advice. Please do not provide personal details such as your date of birth, NHS number or your own medical diagnosis in your feedback or content submissions to the HPAL website.
This website has been set up as a freely available resource to help clinicians and the public by the following team:
-
Dr Ros Taylor MBE is a palliative physician committed to the access to relevant excellent palliative information for all those caring for or living with advancing illness
-
Dr Poppy Freeman, Medindex Director and GP provided invaluable consultancy on the content creation of this site. HPAL is built on her Medindex platform
This website was made possible by funding from Harlington Hospice
