We invite you to a specialist conference on palliative medicine and hospice care, which will take place on 13 October 2026 at the Rehabilitation Hospital Beroun.
You can look forward to a day full of inspiring lectures and discussions on palliative care from the perspective of hospital physicians, GPs, the emergency services, psychiatry and other specialist fields. Topics will include, amongst others, interdisciplinary collaboration, patient care in mobile hospices, communication, the handover of patients between emergency and palliative care, and the role of the physician at the end of life.
The conference will also provide a forum for sharing experiences, bringing together experts and engaging in joint discussions on how to ensure that patients remain, above all, human beings – with their own uniqueness, dignity and needs.
