End of Life Law for Clinicians Advisory Committee seeks College Representative


End of Life Law for Clinicians (ELLC) is a National Palliative Care Project focused on the delivery of end of life law training for clinicians.

Research has demonstrated that significant legal knowledge gaps exist amongst specialists involved in end-of-life decision-making. The End of Life Law for Clinicians project aims to improve clinicians’ (medical practitioners, nurses and allied health professionals) and medical students’ legal knowledge and practice by developing and delivering training on the law relating to palliative and end-of-life care.

ELLC is seeking a representative from the College to join the ELLC Advisory Committee. The Committee’s role includes advising on clinical practice and systemic issues relating to palliative and end-of-life care.

The following resources have been provided by ELLC:

Please use “ELLC” in the subject line.
