The Torres and Cape Hospital and Health Service’s Pop-Up Palliative Care Service, known as the PUPS team, are in line for a major award.

The team was named as a finalist in the 2023 National Palliative Care Awards. 

The team, from left – Kate Richardson, Vesta Sexton and Charlene McCall – are a finalist in the category of Outstanding Achievement in Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander Palliative Care.

The awards ceremony will be held in Sydney in September.

The dedicated TCHHS PUPS team transitioned from a project to a service in the past year and have seen ongoing success in the delivery of their consumer driven Model of Care.

Congratulations to the team on becoming finalists.
