ExcerptThe Palliative Care 2020 Grants Program is an initiative of the South Australian Government to work with and support innovative non-government organisations who can bring new ideas to improve and diversify palliative care.
Together with Palliative Care SA, South Australia’s peak body in palliative care, the State Government celebrates the outcomes of these projects and the contributions they have made to expanding palliative care for:
> people with complex needs;
> people with disabilities;
> Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities;
> people living in residential aged care;
> people living in rural and remote areas; and
> Culturally and Linguistically Diverse communities.
The Grants Program was a highly competitive process, with over 70 applications received. A total of $1.4 million was awarded to 16 non-government organisations to deliver 17 projects as outlined in this Project Showcase.
The South Australian Government acknowledges the Commonwealth Government for its co-contribution in funding the Residential Aged Care Facility Grants through the Comprehensive Palliative Care in Aged Care Project Agreement.
Project summaries contained within this booklet demonstrate the breadth of non-government organisations involved in the Palliative Care 2020 Grants Program and highlight the critical importance of their unique knowledge, skills and commitment to expand palliative care in the community.
