Short description
The RPCS accepts referrals from all system stakeholders for EOL patients whose preferred place of care or preferred place of death is at home. The service provides a package of care (POC) based on assessed needs of the patient as soon as the referral is accepted and based on the assessed needs of the patient. RPCS completes a checklist assessment between week 6 – 8 to ensure that the CHC team can complete the decision support tool (DST) assessment for any patient requiring fast track provision.
