The Lead Nurse for Neonatal Palliative Care Project aims to improve neonatal palliative care to ensure that babies and their families receive the best possible care at the most challenging time of their lives.
An emerging specialism, neonatal palliative care emphasises the comfort of the baby and quality of life for the family, however long their time together may be. It improves the experience and outcomes for families during a time of crisis, specifically when their baby is not expected to survive, or when a baby has multiple complex health needs with an uncertain future.
The project is jointly funded by The True Colours Trust, CW+ and Chelsea and Westminster NHS Foundation Trust. The project is led by Alex Mancini, the country’s first National Lead Nurse in Neonatal Palliative Care.
