Patients days from death to be offered 'compassion' signs

Patients days from death to be offered 'compassion' signs Hospital patients just hours or days from death are to be offered 'compassion' signs near their beds to alert staff and visitors.

The scheme to give them peace, dignity and respect has been devised by the east Kent hospitals trust and the Pilgrim's Hospice.

They say it will provide more comfort and solace to people receiving end-of-life care and their families.

It's operating in about 50 wards across the trust, including at Kent and Canterbury Hospital. The Daily Mail
