Alzheimer's Australia end of life care surveys

Alzheimer’s Australia is conducting research on end of life care for people with dementia. The project aims to identify barriers and enablers to quality end of life care from the perspective of carers involved in end of life care.

If you work in end of life care or aged care, or are a current or former family carer of a person with dementia, Alzheimer’s Australia wants to hear about your views and experience with end of life care for people with dementia by completing these online surveys.

There are two surveys:

1. For health and aged care professionals - https://secure.piazzaresearch.com.au/ls2/index.php/167838/lang-en

2. For current and former family carers - https://secure.piazzaresearch.com.au/ls2/index.php/478875/lang-en

These surveys will close Monday 5th August 2013. If you have any questions about the project or the survey please contact Kim Taylor via: Phone: (02) 6278 8922 or Email: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
