The course brings together step-by-step protocols for pain management and relief of distressing symptoms and translates a complex topic into the language of everyday clinical practice.

You will make end-of-life decisions more confidently, calmly guide the family and colleagues, and rely on modern principles of palliative care rather than on intuition.
