Report of a Working Party of the Scottish Partnership Agency for Palliative and Cancer Care

This report of a Working Party set up by the Scottish Partnership Agency for Palliative and Cancer Care suggests a Framework for the operation of Managed Clinical Networks in Palliative Care in Scotland. The report sets out the benefits which the Working Party believed it should be possible to achieve for patients, carers and health professionals through the establishment of Managed Clinical Networks in Palliative Care. It describes the aims and characteristics of MCNs in Palliative Care and makes recommendations about membership and structure, allowing some flexibility so that Networks could be targeted to suit local needs and circumstances.
