However, much still needs to be done to improve this situation in an effective and efficient way that meet the needs of individuals. It would appear that PHPC, and in particular Compassionate Communities, have a key role to play in this endeavour.

Abstract

Social isolation and loneliness in those with serious illness have a negative effect on the quality of life. However, much still needs to be done to improve this situation in an effective and efficient way that meet the needs of individuals. It would appear that PHPC, and in particular Compassionate Communities, have a key role to play in this endeavour.
