CareSearch Online palliative care information for GPs
Abstract
General practitioners occupy a unique place
in caring for patients with terminal illnesses
who wish to continue living in the community.
Supporting and encouraging GPs to offer or
continue providing palliative care is not only
important for individual patients and their
families but for the health system and the whole
community. The GP pages in the CareSearch
website are designed to provide immediate
access to relevant content and palliative care
resources to assist GPs in this role.
