RACGP aged care clinical guide (Silver Book)
Medical care of older persons in residential aged care facilities, a Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) publication commonly known as the Silver Book, is one of the RACGP’s flagship clinical resources.
National Palliative Care Standards
The National Palliative Care Standards (Edition 5) have been updated following consultation with the palliative care community and other stakeholders. Much has changed within palliative care over the past decade, including expansion of the evidence base for clinical care, re-design of service delivery models of care to meet changing community expectations and needs, and changes to the language used to describe those we care for. Most importantly there is increasing recognition that caring for people who are approaching and reaching the end of life is everybody’s business – everybody in health, aged and social care has a role to play.
The National Palliative Care Strategy 2018
We produced this National Palliative Care Strategy following the 2016 evaluation of the 2010 strategy. The strategy outlines our plan to make sure you get the highest level of palliative care. We developed this strategy with help from everyone who provides palliative care services.
