CareSearch updates

CareSearch is currently conducting an online survey to find out how health professionals and the community look for and use online health information including online information about palliative and end of life care.

To help ensure that CareSearch can continue to support those at end of life by providing trustworthy, evidence-based information on palliative care to health professionals and the community, we are seeking feedback on this important online resource and invite you to participate in the survey.

Participation is anonymous, and the survey will take approximately 20 minutes to complete.

Access evidence-based information on a range of palliative care topics with the new CareSearch Clinical Evidence Summaries. These summaries are perfect for:

• building clinical knowledge
• training and education
• improving palliative care delivery

Use these summaries to align practice with current evidence and professional standards in palliative care.

The CareSearch team is pleased to be awarded the Flinders University 2024 Vice Chancellor's Award for Research Impact & Engagement. This is a significant achievement that recognises and values our team's excellence in research impact and engagement. Absent: Dr Madeleine Juhrmann.

Everyone will experience death at some stage in their life, but we can be reluctant to think about, talk about, and plan for it. The CareSearch Dying2Learn packs are a practical resource for your service to help start these important conversations. 

CareSearch has launched a new video explaining its role in supporting health professionals across all sectors in providing end-of-life and palliative care.

Our team are pleased to say over the next 3-6 months, we will be updating the Clinical Evidence section in CareSearch. We update this every 3 years to connect you with clinically relevant evidence summaries.
