Palliative Care Connect provides information and linkages to palliative care and bereavement supports in South Australia. It has been funded through a $7.27 million grant from the Australian Government. The goal of the service is to increase access to palliative care and bereavement supports by assisting with smoother transitions between types of care and providing guidance into end-of-life care pathways.

An information line is available for people with life-limiting illnesses and their family members, friends, and carers, as well as healthcare professionals. Palliative Care Navigators, available through the information line, provide information, service linkages, and empower individuals to make choices aligned with their culture and preferences.

Palliative Care Navigators also support general practitioners and other healthcare professions, including those who work in palliative care units, acute care and aged care services to organise and link people to appropriate palliative care, supports or services.

The service also includes a consumer-friendly website, improved volunteer coordination and access to bereavement services navigation.

Palliative Care Connect will also create better links between primary health networks, specialist palliative care services, and relevant community-based services.
