💬"By listening to the voices of those who receive and deliver palliative care, CareSearch can help ensure that digital innovation serves the palliative and end-of-life needs of all Australians in the coming decade."

As artificial intelligence 🤖, misinformation, and digital technologies continue to transform how people find and use health information, ensuring access to trustworthy, evidence-based palliative care resources 📚 is becoming increasingly important.

In this blog, Dr Seth Nicholls and Professor Jennifer Tieman explore findings from a 2025 survey📊, explain how a rapidly changing digital landscape will render CareSearch more important than ever in the coming decade.

💜 “Palliative and end of life care will always be complex, emotional, and deeply individual. No set of numbers will ever capture its full richness.” 📊

Amy Hutchison explores how quality indicators can help health and aged care services assess and improve palliative care for older people. Drawing on a recent literature review📋, it highlights a wide range of indicators related to organisational practices, clinical care, advance care planning, and individuals’ experiences of care. While many indicators require further refinement, they can help services identify gaps, improve practice, and support compassionate, person-centred end-of-life care. 🤝

💬 "Cultural identity is treated as a core part of compassionate care, not an afterthought."

Australia is one of the world's most culturally diverse countries. 🌏 In this blog, Alessia Aielli, Project Officer at Palliative Care Australia, highlights Caring Together – An Introduction to Paediatric Palliative Care, a resource designed to support culturally safe conversations about paediatric palliative care. Co-designed with families and healthcare professionals🤝, the resource provides clear, accessible information about palliative care, the healthcare professionals involved, and families' rights to participate in care and decision-making.
