       Initial funding was used to provide intensive training for
       community hospital staff providing end of life care. This is
       required for implementation of this initiative. By providing
       ongoing support and refining the admission process, more
       patients can be cared for in community hospitals.
       Since the training finished, three patients have been
       successfully cared for in their end of life phase within this
       setting, exceeding the minimum target. Previously, some patients
       who had end of life care needs were cared for in the community
       hospitals because many patients already on the wards were
       elderly. These three people had specifically been recognised as
       needing end of life care rather than patients who had
       deteriorated rapidly and died.
