Abstract
This chapter examines the quality of family and palliative care in care homes for older people. It suggests that the overall the quality of death and dying in care homes can be improved if there is more widespread adoption of a palliative care philosophy within care homes, and if staff and families work together in an equal and active partnership. It describes the evolution of relationship-centred care and the senses framework and evaluates their potential use in relation to a palliative care model in care homes.
