In our third SA Palliative Care 2020 Grants Program blog, the project team at Aboriginal Health Council of SA (AHCSA) discuss how their palliative care program will work to fill gaps around the palliative care system for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples.

In our second SA Palliative Care 2020 Grants Program blog, Tracey Watters, Project Coordinator of the Palliative Care Pathways and Partnerships at Motor Neurone Disease (MND) SA, writes why improving palliative care for people with MND is important and how the project will help.

To improve access to and diversify quality palliative care services the South Australian State Government provided grants to 16 organisations. We are publishing a Palliative Care 2020 Grants Program blog series featuring these projects.

In our first blog for the series, Alison Harrington, Founder and CEO of Moove & Groove, discusses how the online program helps to improve the wellbeing of seniors and how they plan to expand it given the positive feedback from participants.

In 2020-2023 we are undertaking a major re-structure to redesign how we connect you with knowledge and resources. One of the new features of the CareSearch portal will be a hub offering resources for diverse communities and groups with specific needs. Help us name the new hub by completing a short poll.

As part of our work CareSearch continuously supports clinicians and the wider community to access evidence-based tools to support palliative care. For many years we have promoted use of the internationally validated SPICT Tool developed to assist with early identification of people with deteriorating health due to advanced conditions or a serious illness.

We are proud to announce that CareSearch is now a platinum partner of the International SPICT Programme.
