The aim of this webinar is to explore the key principles of palliative care practice for residents in residential aged care facilities.

Learning outcomes:

  • Identify patients who will benefit from goals of care discussions and advance care planning
  • Understand the concept of holistic care as applied to a person with a life limiting illness
  • Identify common symptoms experienced by palliative patients and recognise signs and symptoms of the final days of life
  • Describe symptom management and care options to improve patient comfort and support dying 'in-place'

This education session is delivered in partnership with Southern Cross Care.

Southern Cross Care acknowledges this project was made possible through funding from the South Australian and Commonwealth Governments under the Comprehensive Palliative Care in Aged Care Project.
