CareSearch updates

The CareSearch/palliAGED team is at the Oceanic Conference this week. Visit booth 12 for updates on our knowledge resources or learn more about our research and project activities through our various posters and presentations. Professor Jennifer Tieman, CareSearch Director, will discuss findings from the Dying2Learn MOOC on Wednesday at 2.45pm, and Deb Rawlings explores death doula workforce training in her presentation on Thursday at 2.45pm. Our partner projects are also active at the conference with Dr Amanda Adams and Dr Priyanka Vandersman presenting on ELDAC activities and Associate Professor Kim Devery on the work of End-of-Life Essentials. You can also view our past conference presentations on the CareSearch website.

We're excited to announce the mid-November launch of the CareSearchgp App, a resource designed to empower GPs in delivering quality palliative care across the life course. This App offers the latest guidance on terminal prescribing alongside evidence-based information on a wide range of important topics such as Advance Care Planning, addressing Voluntary Assisted Dying, recognising deterioration, engaging in case conferences, care for your dying patient, and supporting the patient’s family through stages of bereavement.

You can also register to be notified when the App is available.
