The End of Life Journal Archives
St Christopher’s End of Life Journal was a free, online, peer-reviewed journal that published articles on all aspects of nursing practice relating to end-of-life care.
The journal was primarily aimed at generalist nurses working in hospital, community and care home settings. Many articles will also be of interest to the palliative care nursing audience as well as members of the wider multidisciplinary team.
The journal focused on care for patients with both malignant and non-malignant disease and their family and friends.
