National Palliative Care Week is an initiative to mark the importance of palliative care in the Australian community.

Palliative care is person and family-centred care provided for a person with an active, progressive, advanced disease, who has little or no prospect of cure and who is expected to die, and for whom the primary goal is to optimise the quality of life.
