The latest edition of the Palliative Care Handbook is now available.
Please follow the link to a web version of the guidelines here.
We have distributed hard copies to all hospices, who will in turn distribute these to all providers of palliative care in their local communities. Please ensure that any previous editions, or electronic links to previous editions are withdrawn or removed.
This is the 6th edition of the handbook, and with the support of Genesis Oncology Trust and the Louisa & Patrick Emmett Murphy Foundation (via Public Trust) this resource is free of charge.
Hospice New Zealand would like to thank the authors, Prof Rod MacLeod, Jane Vella-Brincat and Associate Prof Sandy Macleod for their ongoing commitment to providing this resource to the palliative care sector in New Zealand and for arranging the trust funding.
