Following the independent review of the Liverpool Care Pathway, the government has published 'One Chance to Get It Right'.

This report summarises the system wide response to the review.  It highlights five new priorities of care and mentions SAGE & THYME as a communication skills training development resource.

Priority 5 is that a patient should have an individual plan of care and to do this, the members of staff involved need to have effective communication skills.
