PallConsult - end-of-life care support service for clinicians

Educators' Muster – End-of-life care skills

PallConsult delivers Educators' Muster events for clinicians who take on educator and facilitator roles in settings that care for patients in the last 12 months of life. These two-day events focus on sharing practical strategies, mentoring approaches, and skills to support frontline nursing, Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS), and allied health clinicians working in community, aged care, and acute care settings.

The program is built on train-the-trainer principles, helping participants gain the knowledge and confidence to deliver effective training within their local services. The events are designed to provide educators with tools and techniques they can immediately apply in their work to improve palliative care delivery.
