Making the case for social investment in palliative and end-of-life care: The Marie Curie Responsive Emergency Assessment & Community Team (REACT)
The Marie Curie Responsive Emergency Assessment and Community Team (REACT) in Bradford is a flagship palliative and end-of-life care service launched in 2022 using social investment from the Care and Wellbeing Fund. Three years on there’s been a dramatic improvement in patient outcomes, with those in the last year of life spending 21 fewer days in hospital. REACT is now fully funded by Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
