Childhood cancer: End of life care (GP factsheet)
Developed in partnership with and written for GPs, this factsheet gives an overview of the key considerations when caring for a child with cancer at the end of their life.
Facing the death of your child
Suggestions and help for families, before and after their child dies. Written jointly with a bereaved parent and psychologist, to try to help with both practical and emotional issues.
Helping bereaved families
The death of a child is a devastating experience for everyone who knew and loved the child. This booklet provides suggestions for family, friends, schools and communities about how to support and help when a child or young person has died from cancer.
Managing symptoms at home
This booklet is about ‘palliative care’ - the phase of treatment where cure is no longer possible – and is concerned with managing symptoms and quality of life. It has been written to give you information about commonly occurring symptoms, their causes, available treatments and, most importantly, suggestions for simple things that you can do at home to help your child.
