Today marks the start of National Palliative Care Week 2025.

This year’s theme is ‘What’s your plan?’ which challenges and inspires a range of conversations.

For individuals and families – it challenges them to think about their own future and quality of life, make informed choices, and decide how they want to be cared for.

For the health and care sectors – it prompts reflection on capacity, innovation, and readiness to meet growing demand in a community that feels empowered by end-of-life planning.

For government – it calls for accountability, opening an opportunity to discuss policy, investment, and strategy, and addressing the future palliative care needs of our community.

Thanks to funding from the WA Department of Health, Palliative Care WA runs workshops to help you learn more about Advance Care Planning. We also have an ACP Support Service to support individuals to progress their ACP documents. To find out more visit HERE.
