Effective communication in end-of-life care is crucial for providing emotional support, building trust, and helping families make informed decisions. Key skills like empathy, clarity, and honesty, ensure dignity and comfort during difficult conversations.

VITAL talk provides a rough framework for clinicians to follow when having conversations around transitioning goals of care. They also have a pocket-guide, which you can find here.​
