Membership of Palliative Care WA provides you with opportunities to stay informed, get involved and positively impact the delivery of palliative care in WA.
In addition to making a valuable contribution to our mission to ensure access to quality palliative care for all Western Australians, as a member you can attend our Sector Forums for free and you receive discounts to other events such as the National Palliative Care Week Breakfast and upcoming Palliative Care WA Gala Awards night.
Our membership is drawn from right across the sector and WA. Currently our members include palliative care, aged care and home care providers; health, disability and community service professionals; carers and health consumers; researchers and educators; policy makers; students and volunteers.
Such a diverse and engaged membership strengthens our role as your peak body and assists us to be able to provide an independent, yet inclusive voice for palliative care within WA.
Whether you are a current member, a past member or have never been a member NOW is the time to apply for your 2021/22 membership. All member applications received by 30th June 2021 will go in into a draw for 3 free memberships for the following year. That is effectively membership for 2 years for the price of one!
