An exciting Member Circle for PCNSW's Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) Communities & Palliative Care Professional Network, featuring a presentation by Nepean Blue Mountains Local Health District on Identifying Cultural & Spiritual Needs That Inform End-of-Life Care.

NBMLHD also presented this topic as a pre-conference workshop at PCNSW's 2024 State Conference, and we are very pleased to offer PCNSW members who missed out previously the chance to attend this session online.

The CALD Communities & Palliative Care Professional Network allows members of Palliative Care NSW to come together once a quarter to engage in peer-to-peer discussions and consultation regarding culturally appropriate palliative care. This Member Circle is open to all PCNSW members, and we invite you to join the Network as well.
