Abstract

Providing care for dying patients and their families is a fundamental part of general practice. There are barriers to the effective provision of such care at both individual and organisational levels (Mitchell et al., 2016), as well as cultural and social barriers to discussing the end of life and dying (www.dyingmatters.org). The extent to which we are exposed to death during training is highly variable, and the way that we are educated to cope with both the practicalities and the emotional aspects of death and dying receives little attention in undergraduate or postgraduate training.
