Most people, if given the opportunity, would choose to die at home rather than in the alien environment of a hospital. But many who do stay home to die suffer unnecessarily. This helpful professional guide is intended to improve the comfort of those dying at home and to increase the proportion of those able to do so. The contributors address the problems of poor communication and inadequate support services, explain what family members can do to help control symptoms, and discuss the kinds of cases which can be treated at home.
