Anam Cara begins information sessions

ANAM Cara House Geelong has begun a series of free information sessions open to the community.

Held in the library of the hospital’s facility in Highton, the sessions are being led by experts in palliative care and aim, according to Anam Cara, to “enhance quality of life, promote wellbeing, and support individuals and families navigating life-limiting illnesses”.

support for its patients and their families, from life-limiting diagnosis to end-of-life.
