Funded Activity Summary

�I don�t want to sit here waiting to die�. Many people towards end of life want their palliative care to continue to be rehabilitative as well as supportive, yet no study to formally evaluate the effectiveness of a patient-centred palliative rehabilitation program has been conducted in Australia. This study aims to identify patient and carer-centred rehabilitation goals such as independence in self care, and develop, trial and evaluate a rehabilitation program to address these goals. The program would be transfer stage conditions such as cancer, cardiac or renal failure.
