PROJECT TITLE

MRFF RART 2.2 Grant – Palliative Care in residential aged care model of care

This project addresses the gap in care that exists in residential aged care facility residents’ access to quality and timely palliative care, through evaluating existing initiatives, establishing end user needs, and developing an integrated and coordinated model of care to support the workforce. Work to-date has informed two projects to improve palliative care in aged care and palliative care plans for those transitioning from hospital to residential care. Projects were presented at the Oceanic Palliative Care Conference 2023, and publications are in progress.
