Abstract
Palliative care for minority ethnic groups remains a
poorly accessed and limited area in district nursing.
This article outlines a hospice apprentice programme
that aims to promote and expand the use of
specialist palliative and end of life care services for
a South Asian community through increasing access
and referrals, improving services by making them
more culturally appropriate for black and minority
ethnic (BME) people, involving BME people in the
delivery of services, and creating better relationships
between BME communities and providers
