Death Literacy Index: Palliative Care Queensland Training

Congratulations on recently completing a training session with Palliative Care Queensland. 

Brisbane North PHN was able to cover the cost of your attendance thanks to funding support for the Department of Health and Aged Care through the Greater Choice for At Home Palliative Care measure. As part of the evaluation of Greater Choice for At Home Palliative Care measure nationally, all people who attended the PCQ session are invited to undertake a Death Literacy Index. 

The Death Literacy Index is a population based tool measuring people’s knowledge and skills that allow them to make active choices around end of life options, and understanding what contributes to people’s level of death literacy. The shortened 29 question form is estimated to take 3-5 minutes. Participants will remain anonymous. Participation is voluntary and you can stop at any time. Scoring and analysis will be completed externally by an external consultant of the Department of Health and Aged Care, but will help inform strengths, opportunities for improvements, key learnings, and standpoint against the Australian average. 

(Note: the wording of the questions within this survey has been dictated by an external consultant on behalf of the Department of Health and Aged Care. If you are unsure of any item, please go with what you think the question is asking.)

Any questions or concerns, please contact Caroline Irle, Project Lead (Caroline.Irle@brisbanenorthphn.org.au) 

Thank you for your support in completing this form.
