North Western Melbourne Primary Health Network’s (NWMPHN) Palliative Care Needs Assessment provides a comprehensive analysis of the palliative care needs of people living in the NWMPHN region. Its purpose is to build an evidence-based understanding of how people with life-limiting illness, and their families, carers, and service providers experience care. It identifies gaps and opportunities to improve access, quality and equity across the region.
Insights from this report will inform evidence-based decision-making for activities within NWMPHN’s Greater Choice for At Home Palliative Care program, funded by the Australian Government Department of Health, Disability and Ageing.
