Funding boost for end-of-life care
Cancer patient Jack Carnegie and his wife Jane at Chris O’Brien Lifehouse’s palliative care funding announcement
Chris O’Brien Lifehouse is renowned for its life-changing comprehensive cancer care – and now the Sydney hospital has the resources to fill one of the few gaps in its treatment options.
The Camperdown-based private facility has received $2.9 million from the New South Wales Government to fund six dedicated palliative care beds along with specialist doctors and nurses.
It is part of nearly $83 million in extra funding the state is investing in end-of-life care over the next four years, on top of the $220 million already spent in the sector.
