Stocks of standard caring@home packages for carers for all States and Territories (apart from Queensland) are now exhausted.

• Clinical Services can make their own packages by following the instructions in this article.
• New resources, packaged in a Community Palliative Care Resources Box will be launched later this year. 
  • It is very important to note that the clinical processes of carers managing subcutaneous medicines at home have not changed as they continue to be consensus-based best practice. Existing individual caring@home packages for carers can still be used.
• Queensland services can continue to order standard packages for carers directly via Queensland Health. 

  • NOTE: Packages are still available for clinical services in Queensland as Queensland Health have funded the production of extra standard caring@home packages for carers.
