Funded Activity Summary

Dementia is the second highest cause of death in Australia. Although palliative care helps individuals avoid suffering and futile interventions at the end of life, only 6% of people that die of dementia receive such care. Many older people with dementia attend an ED in their final year of life. In CELPI we will trial using that opportunity of an ED visit as the trigger to implement a triad of carer education, access to palliative care and a formal planning process for participants.
