The Department, through the National Institute for Health and Care Research, is investing £3 million in a new Palliative and End of Life Care Policy Research Unit. This will help build the evidence base on all-age palliative and end-of-life care to inform policymaking in this vital area. Adults can access NHS Talking Therapies services, which provide evidence-based psychological therapies for people with common mental health conditions, including anxiety disorders and depression, implementing the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines. NHS Talking Therapies can be accessed via a number of routes, including self-referral, through a GP or via other services. The implementation of long-term condition pathways in NHS Talking Therapies has been identified as a priority to support integration of mental health and physical health services for people with co-morbid long-term conditions, such as cancer, which can include palliative and end of life care.
