Cultural issues in end of life care blog

August 17th, 2009 by Malcolm Payne


To follow up the last post: David Oliviere draws my attention to an Australian/Asia Pacific blog on cultural issues in End of Life Care. A bit sparse as yet, but they’re having a conference this summer, so more may emerge.

The next pic in the sequence, approaching the new St C’s: I left you at the reception desk, but looking round you see the new waiting room with its mural derived from a St C’s photography project a year or two ago. Hidden in these pics is St C’s chief exec in her supergirl outfit. And everything is surveyed by the bust of Dame Cicely:Reception searing

    Thanks for mentioning our blog on cultural issues in end of life care! Just to let you know that it is actually administered by the Centre de Recerca en Salut Internacional de Barcelona (CRESIB), and is not an Australian/Asia Pacific blog. However we did advertise an Australian conference on our front page which is where the confusion has arisen. The blog includes pages in which professionals can debate issues surrounding cultural issues in end of life care, and a page in which health care practitioners can share their experiences – so please contribute via the comments section!
