This is for patients with a serious illness with:

• Prognosis of less than 3 months AND

• Require specialised care that cannot be provided at home, at a centre or in a nursing home

• Prognosis of 12 months or less AND

• Require time-limited care of up to 28 calendar days for severe symptoms that cannot be managed in the community
