The Palliative & End of Life Care: Collaboration, Compassion, Choice conference will help you to develop a greater understanding of how end of life care is going to be delivered in England over the next five years.
The programme will feature an overview of the latest policy and guidance from organisations such as NHS England and NICE, as well as further discussion around implementation and plans for the future. This will be supplemented by practical sessions which are designed to be transferable, encouraging adoption across different teams and organisations.
Open Forum Events are delighted to be gaining a reputation for “truly inspirational” health and social care conferences. Our delegates are telling us that they leave our events with “new ideas and approaches” they can actually apply within their own organisations.
Join us at Palliative & End of Life Care: Collaboration, Compassion, Choice to hear the latest on the five year vision for end of life care, the new national clinical guideline, and examples of best practice from leading organisations across the health and social care sector. You will have the opportunity to question, discuss and debate the very latest policies, projects and emerging models of care, as well as sharing your own stories and experiences with the conference and contributing to wider thinking about end of life care.
