34th Supportive & Palliative Care Conference NBMLHD

Come and join us for this well loved, long running palliative care conference, now in it’s 34th year. 

New Beginnings at End of Life: Aren't You Just Dying to Know?

As we celebrate 34 years of fostering collaboration and innovation in palliative care, this theme encourages curiosity, compassion, and the discovery of new possibilities. Aligned with Dying to Know Day, engage in conversations about life, death, and everything in between.Through thought-provoking discussions, cutting-edge research, and real-world stories, we will explore how end-of-life care can also spark new beginnings—for patients, families, and healthcare professionals alike.
