Palliative Care webinar upcoming on 21 May

Transcript

We will have a webinar called “Palliative Care”. 

Palliative care is treatment, care and support to help for people who are very sick and can't get better and will die from illness. So this care is all about making them feel as good and happy as possible. 

We will have Sophie, a hearing doctor based in Perth, specialises in palliative care medicine, providing home-based care to people of all ages. 

She will explain more about what palliative care is - supporting each person doesn’t matter what’s their age for what they need. This includes reducing pain, making plans for the future, and arrange counselling to cope with emotions. 

Palliative care also helps families talk about important things together, supports and respects cultural traditions, and offers respite care.
