What are NICE guidelines?

NICE gives advice to staff working in health and social care. Our guidelines help them to give the best care to people with different conditions and needs. We wrote this guideline with parents of children and young people with life-limiting conditions, and with staff who support them. We also asked young people with life-limiting conditions what they thought about the care they received. All the decisions are based on the best research available. You can read the guideline written for people who work in health and care services.
