Irish Hospice Foundation is a proud partner of Palliative Care Week 2024, which is hosted by the All-Ireland Institute of Hospice and Palliative Care (AIIHPC).
The theme for 2024 is You, Me and Palliative Care.
Palliative Care Week aims to raise awareness about what palliative care is and how it can be used to plan future care needs, while also supporting people with life-limiting illness and those close with them to live as well as possible.
Working with partners and colleagues across the palliative care sector and with other organisations and individuals interested in health and wellbeing, AIIHPC has facilitated an annual Palliative Care Week since 2014.
