Palliative care nursing is a vital resource in the Eurobodalla community. It offers comprehensive support for patients with serious illnesses, their families, and their caregivers. This specialised branch of nursing is dedicated to managing symptoms and significantly enhancing the quality of life throughout the patient's journey.
We welcome Theresa Pot as your new Nurse Practitioner specialising in Palliative Care at Queen Street Medical Centre. Her unwavering commitment to building a compassionate support network is a tremendous asset to our community.
Empathy and understanding are at the heart of palliative care nursing, supported by a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach. Our skilled nursing staff works closely with your general practitioner and other healthcare professionals to develop a holistic care plan that addresses each patient's unique physical, emotional, and spiritual needs.

In addition to providing direct patient care, palliative care nursing supports families through education and counselling. This guidance helps families navigate the challenges of caregiving and the emotional complexities that arise, fostering a sense of community where shared experiences can create meaningful connections.
It's essential to recognise that palliative care nursing encompasses more than just end-of-life care. It emphasises the importance of living fully and finding comfort, dignity, and peace at every stage of life.
