AB  - We hope that general practitioners will consider counselling their dying patients more actively, including those in hospital where terminal care may be poorly handled psychologically. This entails a major change in training which we hope is taking place through vocational training schemes. We feel a change in attitude to be necessary by many general practitioners who often deal with death by evasion and untruth.
