Palliative Care Victoria is hosting a series of online yarning sessions across Victoria to introduce the Yingawugel bungim yiya: Songlines for Deep Dreaming project.

Developed in partnership with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, the project has created a culturally safe, trauma-informed palliative care plan to support Elders living in residential aged care homes. The sessions will introduce the plan, discuss practical implementation, and provide information on participating in the current project trial.

Aboriginal Health Workers, community organisations, hospitals, aged care homes, and general practices in Victoria are encouraged to attend.

The sessions for the Easten Melbourne PHN are below (please note you can select any date when registering)
