Exploring Trauma Informed Palliative Care for Populations Experiencing Structural Vulnerability
August 14, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 2:15 pm PDT
Part two in Pallium Canada’s Trauma Informed Palliative Care series.
Palliative care is not accessed by everyone equally in Canada. In fact, income, housing, and race, for example, play a big role in who ultimately receives palliative care. This moderated panel webinar aims to explore the impact of structural vulnerabilities as it pertains to socioeconomic, political, and cultural hierarchies, on access to care and the consequences of trauma in our communities. Panelists will explore their personal experiences in a variety of disciplines to detail how certain social determinants of health serve as barriers to care and how trauma informed care can be envisioned to derive health equity for populations experiencing vulnerability.
