Focussing on end-of-life care for people who use, or have used, substances, this book explores their social and health care needs and the multiple disadvantages they have often experienced, discussing the complexities around access to care that result.
Presenting models of good practice, case studies and empirically based evidence, Substance Use, End-of-Life Care is informative, rigorous and useful for policy and practice development. The first section foregrounds the personal experiences of people living with substance use, their families and friends, and the health and social care professionals who work with them. The second section looks at how health inequalities can impact people in need of palliative care, including chapters on health literacy, mental health and learning disabilities. The final section explores social challenges that may be experienced, including homelessness, sex work, racism and incarceration.
This interdisciplinary volume is essential for researchers, practitioners, students and educators working around substance use, mental health and palliative and end-of-life care, who are looking for guidance and a reference for their work in supporting people at the end of their lives who have multiple and often complex needs.

About the Author
Gary Witham is a Senior Lecturer in Nursing at Manchester Metropolitan University, UK. His research interests are exploring marginalised populations' experiences and access to palliative and end-of-life care services. Specifically, he has co-investigated the experiences of people using substances at the end of life, their carers and family as well as health and social care professionals. He has also worked on projects exploring the implementation of good practice models of care related to support people using substances at the end of life.
Sarah Galvani is Professor of Substance Use and Social Research at Manchester Metropolitan University, UK. Sarah is a social worker by profession, having started out working as a volunteer in the UK and USA with homeless people with mental ill health and/or people who use alcohol or other drugs. As an academic, she currently leads work on end-of-life and palliative care for people using substances and focusses on substance-related research among marginalised populations.
Sam Wright joined Professor Sarah Galvani and a multi-disciplinary team at Manchester Metropolitan University in 2016 to work on a large exploratory study focussing on end-of-life care for people with alcohol and other drug problems. Her main focus has been interviewing people approaching the end of life, their family caregivers and the health practitioners working with them. More recently she has been helping to develop a new model of end-of-life care for people using substances in Liverpool and Sefton (UK) and also evaluating effective ways of supporting people who are street homeless.
Gemma A. Yarwood is a Senior Lecturer in Criminology and Sociology, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK. A key focus of Gemma’s research is end-of-life care and substance use.
