This publication aims to provide examples of better palliative care practices for older people to help those involved in planning and supporting care-oriented services most appropriately and effectively. Examples have been identifi ed from literature searches and from an international call... for examples through various organizations, including the European Association of Palliative Care and the European Union Geriatric Medicine Society. Some examples consider how to improve aspects within the whole health system; specifi c smaller examples consider how to improve palliative care education, support in the community, in hospitals or for specifi c groups of people, such as people in nursing homes and people with dementia and their families. Some examples await rigorous evaluation of effectiveness, and more research is needed in this fi eld, especially the cost–effectiveness and generalizability of these initiatives.

Overwhelming evidence shows that a range of health concerns—mental illness, substance dependence, HIV/AIDS, and noncommunicable diseases—affect prisoners disproportionately. But, while incarceration poses risks to health—including inadequate nutrition and exposure to violence—prisons also pr...esent important opportunities to promote health and risk reduction that need to be tapped.
Some recommended remedies:
Health ministries, not ministries of justice, should manage health care responsibilities
Ensure that testing is available, but not mandatory, for infectious diseases

Faciliter l’accès aux soins de santé primaires et assurer une couverture sanitaire universelle à la population reste un défi de grande taille pour les pays en voie de développement. En effet malgré quelques efforts consentis ces dernières décennies, le problème d’accessibilité aux so...ins de santé est loin d’être résolu. Outre le problème épineux des ressources humaines s’ajoutent des difficultés liées à l’organisation et au fonctionnement des systèmes de santé, au financement des systèmes de santé, à la prestations de soins de qualité et à l’accès aux médicaments de base. Tous ceci ayant un impact désastreux sur la population notamment les plus pauvres qui n’arrivent plus à bénéficier de soins de qualité permettant d’obtenir une santé optimale.
