MLL: Making palliative care available for all

People with cancer who receive palliative care have better managed pain and symptoms, feel better about the care they receive and have better supported families and carers, yet only a minority of people receive this support. Join Prof Brian Le in this webinar to learn why this happens and how a novel palliative care program can help reduce this unequal access to care.
