OUTCOMES

years since the PEPA placements program began

1,500

Health professionals who have undertaken PEPA placements

500

Health professional participants who identify as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander
Ongoing evaluation of PEPA/IPEPA continues to show that the program is having a positive and sustainable impact on the confidence and skills of health professionals in the delivery of a palliative approach to care, and the strengthening of networks and linkages between generalist and specialist palliative care providers.

There is evidence that placement participants implement a range of strategies to disseminate new knowledge at the local level, and improve delivery of care following participation in the program.

The presenters were knowledgeable, approachable, and passionate about their work. The information was presented perfectly, we were involved well and encouraged and supported to step out of our comfort zones.
