Inequalities in end-of-life care provision are well documented and are a priority for organizations both nationally and internationally. It is well recognized that end-of-life care should be provided not just for patients with cancer, and that access to services should be based on need rather than on disease. Of even greater importance, particularly in multicultural societies, is the realization that such services should also be accessible to all, regardless of gender, culture, religion, ethnicity, etc. To achieve this, a degree of cultural sensitivity across care provision sectors is a prerequisite. Services must be acceptable as well as accessible to all, regardless of ethnic or cultural background.
