Abstract:

This chapter outlines how health professionals may best prevent, recognise, assess, manage and support people with palliative diagnoses who are at risk of delirium, and their families, according to best-evidence and the circumstances, needs and wishes of the person. The chapter also presents evidence-practice gaps in delirium care in palliative contexts, and briefly outlines future directions for research and clinical practice development.
