Area of Science:

  • Palliative Care
  • Health Services Research
  • Network Analysis

Background:

  • Equitable access to quality palliative care is essential for patients nearing end-of-life.
  • Understanding the existing palliative care delivery network is key to improving patient outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To map palliative care delivery within the Far West Local Health District (FWLHD), NSW.
  • Identify providers, their connections, care provision, and challenges in the palliative care network.
  • Inform the implementation of new palliative care models based on localized knowledge.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted semi-structured interviews with specialist palliative care and generalist healthcare providers.
  • Performed content analysis of interview transcripts.
  • Utilized network analysis to map service connections.

Main Results:

  • Identified an extensive network with established connections for palliative care provision.
  • Highlighted challenges including communication, early identification, and education within the network.
  • Mapping revealed opportunities for improved communication and service integration.

Conclusions:

  • Understanding existing healthcare networks is vital before implementing new palliative care models.
  • Mapping strengthens the identification of network strengths and gaps.
  • This knowledge supports the development of regionally responsive and effective palliative care services.
