By setting up a Resource Library of material useful to help the self-empowerment of individuals suffering from any condition, the Office aims to promote the free exchange of the resources prepared by different jurisdictions, thus creating a platform to help support their philanthropic endeavours. These resources are made available on line without charge.
A Caregiver's Guide - A Handbook about End-of-Life Care was prepared as a joint initiative of the Order of Saint Lazarus in Canada and the Canadian Hospice Palliative Care Association. The resource was created to provide information for family caregivers to draw upon when preparing and caring for a loved one who has a progressive illness, especially at home. It was developed to complement resources and information provided to caregivers by healthcare professionals, including hospice palliative care teams. You can download a copy here, and hard copies are also available.
The First Aid Manual was prepared by the Grand Priory of the Maltese Islands through the collaboration of a number of healthcare professionals. The resource provides information to members of the Order and the public on issues related to administering first-aid in a variety of circumstances. You can download a copy here, and hard copies are also available.
