Palliative care

The 2023 SAPC palliative care special interest group meeting will be held on Tuesday 18th July 3-4 pm in the Oxford Room at the SAPC ASM in Brighton. The meeting will take place in a SIG café where we will share the space with other SIG groups.

We intend to use this time together as an informal catch up, share research progress, and plan a series of relevant and useful primary palliative care webinars.

We hope that you will be able to join us in person, but if you won’t be in Brighton, you are more than welcome to join the meeting virtually via Zoom:

Objectives of the group

• To facilitate palliative care research within primary care, particularly collaborative studies
• To identify key research questions in the provision of palliative care in the community,    for both malignant and non-malignant illnesses
• To assist each other and discuss methodological issues in carrying out our research
• To hence  improve the quality and quantity of end-of-life research conducted in  the community
• To be a resourse to the SAPC executive when dealing with  issues relating to palliative care
