Palliative Care Conferences

In addition to partnering with Oregon's larger urban communities, the Center for Ethics has developed a strong network of relationships with the state's small and rural hospitals to build programs in palliative care.

Made possible by grant support from The Kinsman Foundation, these conferences provide powerful collaborative learning for health care professionals of all disciplines to improve the quality of end-of-life care in communities large and small.  They also build long-lasting connections with health care leaders throughout the state to strengthen Oregon's position as a national leader in palliative care.

 Principal Investigators: Susan Tolle, MD and Erik Fromme, MD

Conference Coordinator: Margaret Jeppesen
