Resources for GPNN members

GPNN members have access to a variety of resources to support their growth and work as a palliative nurse.

The Lantern Model

This was developed in 2020 in celebration of the Year of the Nurse. Evidence and practice based, it offers a conceptual appreciation of palliative nursing to inform practice, education/training and leadership of nurses.

GPNN members can access talks and tools that take the model into practice, available to members for contextualisation and use as they wish.
