Grant - Palliative Care Residential Aged Care Home Education & Quality Improvement Program
Tender Overview
About this tender
Palliative Care Residential Aged Care Home Education and Quality Improvement Program Central and Eastern Sydney Primary Healthcare Network (CESPHN) is seeking expressions of interest (EOI) from Residential Age Care Homes (RACHs) interested in participating in a Palliative Care Education and Quality Improvement (QI) Program. The program aims to support RACHs to strengthen their knowledge, skills, and capability of their workforce to deliver high quality, person-centred palliative and end of life care to residents, their families, and carers. RACHs participating in the Program will be eligible for financial support of $1,500 to undertake education and targeted palliative care QI activities. Eligible organisations may apply for the grant under one of two applicant types: • Single‑site RACH organisations – those operating one RACH within the CESPHN region, may submit an application for that single facility. • Multi‑site aged care organisations – operating two or more RACHs within the region, may choose to apply by submitting separate applications for each facility, with each site receiving individual funding, separate education sessions, and separate quality improvement activities. Combined education session(s) for multi-site organisation can be considered (a minimum of 3-4 clinical staff from each site need to attend). Participating RACHs will have 12 months from the date of signing a grant agreement to complete funded activities. This grant opportunity is limited to up to 50 RACHs within the CESPHN region. Please read this EOI guidance and the Memorandum of Agreement prior to applying to participate in the Program.
