The support of individuals like you helps us make a difference. Rev. David is a perfect example. He was in the Chaplaincy field and has since moved to in-home care for adults with dementia. He said “I miss these kind of presentations” and took the time to share his thoughts and thank us. The sum of your support and positive feedback contributes to our motivation to educate and empower palliative care professionals.
The 2016 International Palliative Care Network Conference is currently underway with lectures and posters offered as a free service to all disciplines of the palliative care community, worldwide. Experts in pediatric palliative care reinforce that “young people want to be seen as a person first not about their illness.” Similarly, President of the European Association for Palliative Care states in his presentation that “Compassion is a necessity for us in as much as it is a necessity for the patients we care for.”
The 2016 Conference is being hosted on an update, more visually appealing and user friendly site. Our participants gain exposure to palliative care programs around the world and apply the skills they learn. The Chinese proverb states it well, “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.” Your support makes a real, lasting impact in the lives of end-of-life care patients.
Your generous donations keep us motivated and allow us to provide a better educational experience to palliative care professionals, worldwide. We simply can’t do it without you. Thank you.
