To celebrate National Palliative Care Week, we are opening the May member circle of PCNSW's CALD Communities & Palliative Care Professional Network to everyone, members and non-members. Register now and share with your colleagues.  Registrations will close at 10:00am on Tuesday.

The theme for National Palliative Care Week is Getting to the heart of it: Big Questions. Real Answers.🧡

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 Network is open to all PCNSW members, and we invite you to join and engage with these discussions and presentations.
