Call for examples - new WHO guide: Palliative Care for Older People: Better Practice [Новость добавлена - 05.09.2007]

We are conducting an open call for examples of better practice in palliative care for older people for a new World Health Organization (WHO) guide. This project seeks to build on two previous guides (Palliative Care: The Solid Facts and Better Palliative Care for Older People) to provide a cross-European analysis of palliative care services and provision and brief case studies of good and promising practice along with evidence of their effectiveness in the context of the WHO health systems principles and framework.   If you would like more information about the project, have any questions or wish to submit an example please contact Anna Kolliakou - anna.kolliakou@kcl.ac.uk, Department of Palliative Care, Policy and Rehabilitation, King’s College London. Tel:+44(0)207 848 5523).
