Three new aged care blogs have been published:

• Aged care and palliative care: what’s the difference?
• Policy is ‘many headed’ and is important in aged care
• From APRAC and COMPAC to palliAGED

palliAGED was launched on 25 May 2017 by the Minister of Ageing, the Hon Ken Wyatt, AM.

The palliAGED site supports nurses and care workers in residential aged care or community care, GPs and general practice nurses, allied health professionals and support staff with evidence, tools, guidance and practice resources about palliative care for older Australians. There is also information and resources for older people and their families.
