Palliative Care Education
Learning about palliative care is crucial as it equips individuals with the skills to provide compassionate, holistic care to dying patients, improving their quality of life. Additionally, understanding palliative care principles helps clinicians effectively manage symptoms, support families, and make ethical decisions in end-of-life situations.
Palliative Care Curriculum for Undergraduates (PCC4U) project provides free resources to educators and learners to assist in the transition to clinical practice, as well as further professional development.
The Proactive Identification Guidance helps clinicians identify patients nearing the end of life to provide proactive, person-centered care, thereby improving planning and reducing crisis hospital admissions
