Name of Meeting/Event/Activity: Latin American Virtual Conference on Palliative Care
Origin: Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic / Destination: Bogota, Colombia
In the midst of the Covid 19 pandemic, there have been many new challenges to face on the forefront of Palliative Care and Hospice. The ALCP virtual conference Jornada Virtual Latinoamericana de Cuidados Paliativos in March was a breath of fresh air. It addressed many of the challenges, and gave specific ways in which the world was coping with the situation. Dr. Bruera was very clear in his message, we must adapt to the changes and set new methods. Diverting many of our patient's visits from physically present to telemedicine was a challenge not only for us, but for our patients. With skeleton staff available, and many new needs of our patients, we have been able to rise to the challenges and meet the growing needs of our patient population. Realizing that things will never go back to the way they were, we have found a new way of doing things, and it works! We are prepared to keep transforming our care to the rising needs and challenges that we face ahead.
