GP Education:
Palliative Care Tasmania have delivered GP training to over 200 General Practitioners and Practice Nurses in the last year. Learn from our experienced educators.
Palliative Care Tasmania offer free education sessions for GP’s and Practice Nurses to build on their existing knowledge and skills relating to palliative care, end of life care and advance care planning. It has been specifically designed to support GP’s and nurses working in general practice and primary care in Tasmania to implement a proactive, systematic, team-based approach to initiating advance care planning and palliative care into everyday practice and care provision for patients and their families.
The sessions include general, non-clinical information, resources, case studies and our education team encourage open discussions with participants to talk about real life experiences. We suggest undertaking all 3 education sessions to ensure your team have a thorough understanding of palliative care, the service provision in Tasmania and understand requirements surrounding the new Tasmanian Advance Care Directive and the Legislation that came into effect in November 2022.
The education program consists of 3 topics that are suitable for lunchbox sessions or clinical meetings. (Click to expand)
