The Tasmanian Association for Hospice & Palliative Care Inc. is the peak representative body for hospice and palliative care in Tasmania.

We are affiliated to Palliative Care Australia, and two Tasmanian delegates attend PCA council meetings.

TAHPC works to:

• Increase awareness and understanding of hospice and palliative care;
   
• Provide information about services;
   
• Support maintenance of best practice standards;
   
• Support workers involved in the care of people who are dying;
   
• Advocate for service provision and its future development;
   
• Support clients and carers in accessing appropriate services.
   

We encourage you and your colleagues to show your support of hospice and palliative care in Tasmania and become a member.
