Delivering Palliative Care Nursing in Brisbane

Brisbane's specialist palliative services are hospital based and stretched, and what they cannot provide is presence: the daily nursing that makes staying at home possible. That is our part. The specialist team directs; our nurses are in the house, keeping comfort real between their visits.

Frequently Asked Questions | Palliative Care Nursing Brisbane

Do you replace the hospital palliative care team in Brisbane?
No, we work under them. The specialist team owns symptom management decisions; our nurses deliver daily care, monitor, and escalate to them promptly as things change. Families get one number to call and a nurse who knows the situation, which is what 2am actually requires.
Can NDIS supports continue during palliative care?
Yes. NDIS supports continue alongside health system palliative care, and coordinating the two is part of our role. The distinction between what the NDIS funds and what Queensland Health provides is real but administrative; the participant should never feel it.
