The purpose of this report is to present the activities of the Irish Society of Homeopaths (ISH) in End of Life Care in the past year, and to propose a 12-month study into the usefulness of homeopathy in a hospice setting in Ireland. Since February 2009, the ISH has been involved in presentations and discussions with interested parties in the field of palliative care, with a view towards introducing homeopathy into End of Life Care in Ireland. The ISH believes that a more holistic approach to end of life care is needed in Ireland, in order to treat not just physical symptoms but also emotional and mental symptoms while maximizing awareness and decreasing suffering.
