Award winners are eligible to receive $2,000 (for individual awards) or $4000 (for team awards) to go toward professional development. This year there are four new awards with the aim to recognise a broader range of people, including the work in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, generalist areas, community-based care, and Paediatric palliative care. https://palliativecare.org.au/awards The form will roughly take 20 minutes to complete. The person nominating will need to gain approval from the nominee and document whether this person has received an award in the past.
