If this is close to home
This page includes language about advanced illness, prognosis, or palliative care, because that is how the trial's eligibility criteria are written. Seeing it set out plainly can land hard, whether it is about you or about someone you are caring for. You do not have to be at a crisis point to talk to someone.
- Griefline — grief and loss counselling, 9am to 6pm weekdays and midday to 6pm weekends (AEST/AEDT): 1300 845 745
- Carer Gateway — practical and emotional support if you are caring for someone, 8am to 5pm weekdays: 1800 422 737
- Canteen — for 12 to 25 year olds affected by cancer, their own or a family member's: 1800 945 215
- Palliative Care Australia — directory of palliative care services near you: palliativecare.org.au
- Lifeline — 24/7, for any kind of distress, at any hour the services above are closed: 13 11 14
Palliative care is not the same as giving up on treatment, and it is not only for the last weeks of life. It is symptom and comfort care that can run alongside active treatment, including a clinical trial.
