Palliative Care in the Home: Lessons From COVID
June 15, 2020 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm PDT
FreeTo contribute toward health care professional preparedness during this pandemic, Pallium Canada, in collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim (Canada) Ltd., is hosting a series of webinars in the upcoming weeks focused on topics that are relevant to our health care teams who are actively leading the response to COVID-19.
This webinar will reflect on how COVID-19 has affected the delivery of palliative care in patient’s homes, both positively and negatively, and the strengths and weaknesses it has exposed. These insights are critical to help us learn and improve as we go forward in the next phase of the pandemic. Panelists will share insights stemming from their own work and the work done in their respective communities. The webinar will also solicit input from the panelists and participants on what palliative care in the home could look like in the next few months.

Panelists: Dr. J. David Henderson MD, CCFP (PC); Dr. Samantha Winemaker BSc, MD, CCFP (PC), FCFP; Dr. Hollis Roth BSc, MD, CCFP (PC); and, Dr. Stephen Singh MD, CCFP (PC).
The webinar is free and open to all health care professionals and will be hosted in English. Please spread the word to your colleagues who may be interested. A recording of the webinar will be disseminated to all registrants.
