Resources for End of Life Care - Last Acts
Last Acts is a national coalition to improve care and caring near the end of
life. The Last Acts Family Committee, a working group serving the Last
Acts Campaign, recently compiled a resources compendium designed for family
caregivers. The materials listed in this compendium were created by
numerous organizations interested in assisting the families and the care givers
of those facing the end of life. The compendium is a shorter version of a
complete resources list compiled by the Family Committee. This full list
