The study: care at the end of life
• National strategy in England aims to provide people with high-quality services driven by own preferences
• Improving coordination of care across all sectors is important
• Hampered by lack of information about how people currently use different care services
• Data linkage techniques have been developed to look at individuals’ use of social care and health care services
• Study aimed to answer some basic questions about use of local authority-funded social care near the end of life

Concluding observations
• Local authority-funded social care plays a large role in the care of those near the end of life
• There appears to be a large amount of variation in social care use
• Social care use appears to increase only modestly during the final year, when compared to hospital use
• Higher use of social care services is associated with lower use of hospital care
