New resource aims to advance measurement in palliative care

Patients are set to benefit from the new Palliative Care Outcome Scale (POS), a tool developed to assist clinicians, researchers and other healthcare workers in measuring physical symptoms; psychological, emotional and spiritual needs; and provision of information and support at the end of life.

Developed by Professor Irene J Higginson, POS is a free resource available in 12 languages.

More information on POS is available here.
