On world hospice & palliative care day, we are reminded of our ethical duty to make #PalliativeCare accessible to all those who need it. At balsam, we strongly believe in this, & our values & mission align with these goals. #WHPCADay24.#EquitableandAccessiblePalliativeCareforall.
Palliative care is an ethical responsibility of health systems. More than 60 million people currently require palliative care every year. EAPC is working towards #EquitableandAccessiblePalliativeCareforall.#WHPCADay24.#EAPC4All
