Better access to palliative care medicines

The Pharmacy Guild of Australia (South Australia Branch) has been commissioned to manage the Palliative Care Medicines Pharmacy Network, which improves access to palliative care medicines and support for people with life-limiting illnesses to allow them to receive treatment at home.

The network of 30 pharmacies provides improved access to a core list of palliative care medicines for people approaching end of life, including after-hours access in urgent situations. The network complements existing community pharmacy access to palliative care medicines, including through the 24-7 pharmacies.
