Co-designing Community Out-of-hours Palliative Care Services: A systematic literature search and review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

In order to provide responsive, individualised and personalised care, there is now greater engagement with patients, families and carers in designing health services. Out-of-hours care is an essential component of community palliative care. However, little is known about how patients, families and carers have been involved in the planning and design of these services.

Aim

To systematically search and review the research literature that reports on how out-of-hours palliative care services are provided in the community and to identify the extent to which the principles of co-design have been used to inform the planning and design of these services.

Design

Systematic literature search and review.
