Palliative Care Tasmania

Palliative Care Tasmania is the main group for palliative care in Tassie.

Palliative Care Tasmania (PCT) wants all Tasmanians with a serious illness, along with their loved ones, to get help in living, passing away, and dealing with loss.

PCT's goal is to guide and shape the rules and actions, speak up, teach, and help people of all ages get good palliative care.
