A new partnership between HammondCare and St Giles Hospice seeks to develop international best practice palliative care for people with dementia.
Research underway at HammondCare’s Greenwich Hospital Pain Clinic is testing whether affordable virtual reality technology could be an alternative to medications to relieve chronic pain in people with spinal cord injury.
As many as 150 jobs as care workers, registered nurses, administration staff and other rewarding positions are up for grabs as HammondCare expands its presence as an aged care provider in Newcastle and Lake Macquarie.
A commitment to servant leadership and a genuine passion for helping people in need is the key to have enabled one of Australia’s leading charities to develop a team of more than 1000 volunteers across three states and territories.
HammondCare palliative care specialists and clinicians are major contributors to a soon to be launched, ground-breaking book that presents palliative care as a science, clinical practice and as an art.
Talking Sense: Living with sensory changes and dementia, written by Agnes Houston MBE with Dr Julie Christie, and published by HammondCare, is being launched on May 9 2019 at the inaugural International Conference on Palliative Dementia Care (ICPDC) at Europa Hotel, Belfast, Northern Ireland.
