Join with us in this workshop to look at why Self-Care Matters. Palliative Care Australia have produced a set of resources, which aim to support you – whatever your role in palliative care – to prevent burnout and build resilience.

Planning and practising effective self-care strategies can sustain your capacity to flourish and support others, both personally and professionally, especially when faced with suffering or providing compassionate care for those struggling with the realities of living with dying.

An opportunity to check in with your own self care practices, learn and support each other.
