In the UK, even if most people are dead at home or hospice, they spend 11.7 billion pounds in the health of people in the last year of life.
According to Marie Curie, the severe disparity is to “take tens of thousands of people died in the final chapter of their lives.” A charity report has revealed that the UK spends 22 billion pounds a year for health care, social care, and welfare benefits of those who die within 12 months.
Of the 11.7 billion pounds spent on health needs, 9.6 billion pounds (81 %) are sent to the hospital, of which two -thirds are used to provide emergency medical care such as A & E.
The results of the survey come when MP is considering how to introduce death for those who are less than six months. Labor Party member Kim Reed Beager's private member's bill We urged a wide range of agreements that end -of -life care requires dramatic expansion.
Other groups that provide Marie Curie with end -of -life care will significantly increase the number of ministers of £ 9.6 billion in the other environment. I want it. According to a report compiled by the Health Economics unit of NUFFIELD TRUST THINKTANK and NHS, 656,400 people died throughout the UK in 2022. Of these, 289,121 (44 %) died in the hospital -more evidence that most people want to end their lives somewhere.
“Through the inadequate community care for the final year of life, we are currently dying to stay in the place where we want to be in the final chapter of their lives. Dr. Sam Royston, an executive director of Marie Curie, says:
“No one can get the necessary support at home, or if you do not want to be there, or if you do not need to be there, you will not be able to face a long stay, so no one calls an ambulance at night. I don't want it, but it's a shocking reality for too many people.
KEIR STARMER said that hospice played an “important role” in supporting people at the end of their lives as much as possible. The government has recently given the Hospice division of 100 million pounds over £ 100.
Health Secretary Wes Street states that Hospice can only get one -third of the government's funds, and two -thirds of the other two -thirds from donation are unfair.
“This report shows that the dying people, their families, or public wallets are not functioning to pay attention to the end of someone's life,” he said. Katie Reed, the person in charge, stated.
Despite wanting to do so elsewhere, it is painful for a very large number of people to die in the hospital. [and] It is also an inefficient use of public funds and can spend more on comfort and dignity. “
James Sanderson, the highest executive of Suwider, a hospice and palliative care provider, urges the minister to set up a hospice network on the hospital, and patients approaching the end of life take care of them. You can. In a hospital with excessive extended.
The Ministry of Health's Social Care Ministry did not directly comment on Marie Curie's survey results. Spokesman in the department states:
“That's why we have recently announced the biggest investment in Hospice in generations. With the increase in financing of 100 million pounds, facilities have been improved and a wide range of resources can be concentrated on patient care. We are working to confirm that the sector is long -term. “
