Grant Description
This grant provides up to $922,000 (GST exclusive, plus indexation) over four years to support a community organisation in project managing the delivery of the PMCP Project, establishing an after-hours palliative care medicines service across the ACT. The initiative aims to increase access to essential palliative medicines and pharmacy support for ACT residents who are palliative and wish to be cared for at home. Key beneficiaries include home-based palliative patients, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, and vulnerable populations such as people experiencing homelessness or living in outer suburbs with access barriers. The focus is on strengthening pharmacy capability, community collaboration, and sustainable improvements in medicine access after-hours.
