Talking to children about dying

The 'PalliLEARN Lunchtime Series' aims to enhance community awareness and understanding in palliative care, in an effort to better equip our community with the skills they need to have those difficult conversations with family, friends and loved ones. We also look at self-care and how to look after yourself during these challenging times.

These courses are offered free for those living or working in the North Brisbane and Moreton Bay regions. There are no prerequisites for training or experience within the health or palliative care space to attend.

Why attend?

The way we care for our dying is a significant indicator of the values of our society. Through training, we can create resilience, understanding and capacity within our community, helping us care for our loved ones, families and friends.
