abstract: 'Introduction People who are homeless or vulnerably housed are subject to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disproportionately high risks of physical and mental illness and are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
further disadvantaged by difficulties in access to services. Research
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
has been conducted examining a wide range of issues in relation to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
end-of-life care for homeless and vulnerably housed people, however, a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
contemporary scoping review of this literature is lacking. Objectives To
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
understand the provision of palliative care for people who are homeless
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
or vulnerably housed from the perspective of, and for the benefit of,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
all those who should be involved in its provision. Design Scoping review
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
with thematic synthesis of qualitative and quantitative literature. Data
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sources MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, Social Policy and Practice and CINAHL
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
databases were searched, from inception to May 2020. Citation chasing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and manual searching of grey literature were also employed. Results
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sixty-four studies, involving 2117 homeless and vulnerably housed people
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
were included, with wide variation in methodology, population and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
perspective. The thematic synthesis identified three themes around:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
experiences, beliefs and wishes; relationships; and end-of-life care.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Conclusion Discussion highlighted gaps in the evidence base, especially
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
around people experiencing different types of homelessness. Existing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
evidence advocates for service providers to offer needs-based and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
non-judgemental care, for organisations to use existing assets in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
co-producing services, and for researchers to address gaps in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
evidence base, and to work with providers in transforming existing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
knowledge into evaluable action.'
