Other Toolkits
As part of ELDAC’s toolkit review, several toolkit areas have been consolidated. While these topics no longer have dedicated ELDAC toolkits, information and resources may still be available through ELDAC downloads or trusted Knowledge Partners.
Primary Care
General practitioners and primary care providers play an important role in supporting older people with palliative and end of life care needs across care settings.For resources relevant to general practice and palliative care, visit the CareSearch Primary Health Care Hub.
Allied Health
The Allied Health Toolkit resources developed through ELDAC provide an important foundation for allied health workforce capability in aged care. ELDAC knowledge partner CareSearch is continuing this work through the development of new content and resources that extend their relevance to palliative care practice across diverse settings, populations and stages of life.As this work progresses, selected ELDAC allied health resources remain available through the CareSearch Allied Health Hub.
Managing Risk

The Managing Risk Toolkit is no longer maintained as a standalone toolkit.
A selection of resources developed through this work remains available for download and may be useful for organisations interested in quality improvement, service development and risk management in palliative and end of life care.
Linkages
Building strong partnerships remains an important part of delivering coordinated palliative and end of life care.While the Linkages Toolkit is no longer maintained, a selection of related resources remains available for download.
