The conference brings together people from a wide range of disciplines to facilitate debate and share research, innovation and good practice. In 2011, the conference had over 200 poster presentations on display, which can be viewed on Help the Hospices website.
Abstracts for poster or oral presentations can be about research, audit, service evaluation or aspects of good practice and could include examples of:
- thinking strategically about the role of hospices
- collecting data and building evidence about hospice care
- supporting end of life care across settings
- enabling and supporting community participation in end of life care
- delivering the care that people want and re-aligning resources around these needs
- clarifying what service/s are on ‘offer’ and communicating it to a range of audiences
- becoming both commissioners and providers of care
- working in partnership with others to develop new ways of raising voluntary income.
