The PCC4U Project is an initiative of the Department of Health and Ageing through the National Palliative Care Program that aims to promote inclusion of palliative care education as an integral part of all medical, nursing and allied health undergraduate training.

• The first stage of this project developed resources to enable palliative care approaches and techniques to be incorporated into medical, nursing and allied health undergraduate curriculum
• The second stage provided national support to several tertiary institutions to implement and promote the use of the following palliative care undergraduate curriculum resources
• The third stage involves the national roll-out of the developed resources to all universities which offer medical, nursing and allied health undergraduate training.

The PCC4U Implementation Project is being led by a multidisciplinary team of nursing, medical and allied health professionals from the Queensland University of Technology, Flinders University, Charles Darwin University and the Centre for Palliative Care Research and Education.

Major project materials and information can be found at the PCC4U website.
