New training for nurses: End of Life Law for Clinicians
Primary health care nurses have a significant and growing role in delivering end-of-life care1 in general practice, aged care, community health and other settings. Their clinical role at the end of life is multifaceted, and can include providing medical and personal care; recognising and responding to deterioration; involvement in clinical decision-making; and care coordination.
Infection prevention helpline

Digital Health: The Nurse Transformers Project
APNA has partnered with the Australian Digital Health Agency (ADHA) to transform how we use digital health in practice.

Together we can ensure digital platforms like My Health Record are utilized to their full extent.
