Palliative care in Scotland: Research into Practice

Researchers from Marie Curie, the University of Edinburgh, NHS Lothian and the University of Glasgow, as part of the new Scottish Palliative and End of Life Care Research Forum, have undertaken a comprehensive scoping review of Scottish palliative care research, published between 2006-2015. This has mapped key areas that are relevant to clinical practice, service development and policy.

This free half day seminar will explore what palliative care research exists in Scotland, what gaps there are and how this can help inform and improve the reach and quality of palliative care. The event will be opened by Shona Robison MSP, Cabinet Secretary for Health and Sport.

Thursday 11 May, Macdonald Holyrood Hotel, Edinburgh. Advance booking essential. More information is available here: weblink.
