  End-of-life care provides comfort to terminally or seriously ill patients and meets their physical, mental and spiritual needs. It aims to help them control pain and discomfort to improve the quality of their final days and die with greater dignity.
  The outline of the “Healthy China 2030” plan released by Chinese au- thorities in 2016 declared that China would build a comprehensive and continuous health service system for the elderly covering hospitalization, rehabilitation, stable life care and endof-life care. In 2018, a total of 283,000 patients received end-of-life care across the country.
