Event Overview:
ACCPA as a consortium member of the ELDAC project (End of Life Direction for Aged Care) is hosting a series of information sessions which will assist to provide nurses, care workers & specialist palliative care clinicians with additional resources & information to support residents/clients with critical choices at the end of their life’s journey.
These sessions will include information on Voluntary Assisted Dying, how does it work, what are your responsibilities, what are my options as a carer/nurse etc. This is an opportunity to connect with other aged care providers and carers in the region – to share experiences regarding the care of older Australians at end of life and to establish relationships.
These sessions are to be delivered across Australia in early 2023 between February – May, and the focus will be on regional and remote areas, at no cost to participants.
