It’s more than you think – 2023 Campaign

Palliative care is not just about dying or ‘end of life’. Palliative care helps people live their life as fully and as comfortably as possible when living with a life-limiting or terminal illness. Sometimes palliative care can support people for many months or even years.

In 2023 Palliative Care Tasmania launched an innovative state-wide Advance Care Planning awareness campaign called “It’s more than you think”. The purpose of this campaign is to engage the community in a conversation about the benefits of palliative care.
