NCARE (Nottingham Centre for the Advancement of Research into Supportive, Palliative and End-of-life Care)

Welcome to NCARE

As the number of patients living with chronic and terminal illnesses grows, there is an increasing need to provide excellent supportive and palliative care.

Our research focus is not only on illnesses such as cancer, but reaches into traditionally under-served populations and under-researched areas. These include dementia, older people, neurological conditions and dying alone.
