Little Haven joined with all other NGO Specialist Palliative Care Service Providers at a QHealth funded workshop to add furtherĀ input to the Palliative Policy Review.
After years of rehashing this dialogue with QHealth it’s fair to say many in the room (members of the Hospice Services Network) felt a large degree of frustration at being told first up they were unsure of the implications to the review of the Premiers announcement last night of a Parliamentary Inquiry into Aged Care, Euthanasia and Palliative Care.
It remains to be seen if our insights shared along with our submissions to the review will be heard. The benefit of meetings like thisĀ is the open sharing of information between services, which only served to highlight how even among like minded services there is a great disparity of funding – Little Haven as the most regional provider is also the poorest funded.
