Funded Activity Summary

The aim of the multi-site partnership is to build on foundational work initiated by NH and MRC to establish a model for end-of-life care in adult Haematology and palliative care. Preliminary work indicates this diagnostic category does NOT presently receive palliative care. Consumer research indicates that end-of-life care in haematology is associated with the distress of escalating technology, post-traumatic stress and spiritual pain. This study seeks to address this situation by building on the prior consumer researcher to develop a model of care through a multi-disciplinary consultation with haematology professionals and consumers.
