Using SPICT to identify people for palliative care – 15 years of international developments
Join the upcoming EAPC webinar exploring 15 years of international experience using SPICT to identify people for palliative care.
Early identification of patients with deteriorating health is crucial for providing timely, person-centered, and coordinated palliative care. This webinar will explore how the Supportive and Palliative Care Indicators Tool (SPICT) is being used across various settings, including hospitals, nursing homes, primary health care, and volunteer-led initiatives, to improve patient outcomes.
Participants will gain practical insights into the implementation of SPICT, the impact of translation and cultural adaptation, its role in palliative care program development, and emerging research opportunities. The session is particularly relevant for clinicians, nurses, researchers, and policymakers involved in primary palliative care who are currently using SPICT or are interested in adopting it.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from experts and enhance your approach to early identification and timely palliative care delivery.
