Thank you all for your ongoing support to promote paediatric pain management. This is a short report as so much has happened in the world since our last report in December – not least of which Covid-19 which is impacting us all. We are all having to do things differently, to look at how we work, and for us working in palliative care we are looking at how we continue to care for those children with palliative care needs, and also ensure that palliative care is available to all who may need it due to Covid-19 and their families. Pain management is essential in this, and fortunately as globally people are looking and how they can provide distance education, we have our elearning programmes up and running, and we are encouraging all those working with children to undertake our elearning programmes and utilise our pain assessment App.
It was encouraging to be in Turkey recently at a meeting to hear someone presenting as to how they are utilising our Pain App in their clinical care. Particularly encouraging as they did not know that ICPCN were in the audience!
At this challenging time we thank you for your ongoing support and we will do all we can to promote palliative care and pain management in children around the world.
