The paediatric palliative care education matrix has been developed to list current Australian and International education programs in paediatric palliative care for all health disciplines.
Specialists in Paediatric Palliative Care have considered each linked program identifying the topics and level of knowledge required to complete the program.
The education matrix used in conjunction with the PACE app offers quick identification and easy access to education in Paediatric Palliative Care.
