If you’ve ever found yourself needing information about an aspect of palliative care – whether it’s how to manage symptoms as diverse as nausea and anxiety, or what approach to take to with bereaved families – you may not have known where to turn. 

That’s when the practical, frank advice of highly regarded experts would have saved the day, right? 

What if we told you that’s exactly what you can find in an online trove of educational resources aimed at skilling up healthcare professionals in palliative care. 

This wealth of palliative care resources comes in the form of over 80 videos, detailing almost every imaginable aspect of the topic. 

Developed originally as The Palliative Care Bridge, under the expertise of HammondCare, Sacred Heart Health Service and Calvary Healthcare Sydney, the videos can now be found among the resources of the NSW Government’s Agency for Clinical Innovation. 

These short videos are a richly informative collection of expertise, covering subjects as diverse as pain management, the grieving process and even the nature of suffering. 

Perspectives are given from clinicians of all kinds, as well as carers, relatives and the patients themselves. 

The collection will help clinicians gain confidence and develop specialised knowledge in the delivery of appropriate palliative care to people in need.
