From the Australian Centre for Grief and Bereavement:

Following funding from the Victorian Government Department of Health, the Australian Centre for Grief and Bereavement, in partnership with the Centre for Palliative Care, have developed a set of bereavement support standards for use by professionals working in all Victorian government-funded, adult, specialist palliative care services, including community, inpatient, acute and consultancy services.

This publication is targeted at all carers and bereaved individuals with elevated risk of developing prolonged or complicated grief or with current psychosocial and/or spiritual distress.
