We are pleased to announce that the first  “International Multidisciplinary Forum on Palliative Care" will be held on November 11-14, in Budapest, Hungary.
 
Palliative care is an important part of the treatment of every patient with a life threatening illness.  It is provided from the moment of diagnosis throughout the trajectory of the illness in order to improve symptom control and quality of life of the patients and their families.

In certain countries palliative care has received accreditation as a specific specialty. Each nurse and physician needs to acquire basic knowledge in palliative care whether they specialize in family medicine, geriatrics, oncology, neurology, internal medicine, pediatrics or surgery.

The upcoming forum is targeted at all medical professions from all fields of medicine. The three day forum will focus on innovative educational sessions in palliative care. The program will include presentations, interactive workshops, and present research at various levels of development.

If you are a family medicine physician, oncologist, geriatrician, neurologist, nephrologist, pediatrician , a pain and palliative physician, nurse, social worker, psychologist, physical therapist, chaplain or any other paramedical professional, interested in improving your basic palliative care skills and knowledge - do not miss this event!
