Funded Activity Summary

Little is known about the quality of palliative care services provided to Indigenous (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander) Australians. This study will use a high quality dataset collected from palliative care services nationwide to compare the quality of end-of-life care provided to Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. The measures of care being compared will include the time taken to enter care, time taken to have clinical condition stabilised, and satisfactory control of symptoms.
