The Collaborative Project to Sustain a Palliative Approach to Care in Long-Term Care is a collaborative project that pools key regional and provincial stakeholder resources and expertise to integrate and/or strengthen palliative care in LTC homes across Ontario. The project was designed to be flexible considering the pandemic.
- The project will run from December 2023 to March 30, 2024.
- The aim is to support your team with strengthening your palliative approach by leveraging existing regional and provincial stakeholders’ resources and expertise.
- Your team will identify how they would like to improve the palliative care within their practice through a comprehensive self-assessment and then select up to three areas of improvement.
- We look forward to working with the team at your home reach their Palliative Care goals.
