Abstract
We read with interest the current insights article titled Nurse-led implementation of palliative care in the intensive care unit, published in ICCN (Benbenishty et al., 2024). We agree that critical care nurses are optimally positioned to demonstrate leadership, autonomy, empathy, and compassion in the provision of end-of-life care, however, it should never be the sole remit of one clinician; quality end-of-life care takes a team. We also believe it takes more than education to optimise end-of-life care.
