CEO Roundtable for Palliative Care in WA
We facilitate the CEO Roundtable for Palliative Care in WA. Meeting two to three times a year, this group provides high level advice to State and Federal Government on palliative care issues in WA. The Roundtable provides opportunities for key stakeholders to engage in robust discussion and debate while maintaining strong and purposeful relationships between the sector and the WA Health Minister. Membership to the CEO Roundtable on Palliative Care in WA is by invitation. Recent Communiques from the meetings are available here:

We encourage and facilitate service commitment, best practice, professional development and sector-wide collaborations. Our aim is to strengthen the sector as a whole, to benefit those working within the sector, and ultimately, the WA community.
