Individuals working in hospice and palliative care can feel professionally isolated especially in countries where there are few such services. Wherever they work it helps to be in touch with colleagues who share their commitment, understand some of the difficulties encountered and may be able to share some possible solutions.
This is where Twinning and Hosting can prove invaluable.
Through Twinning hospice/palliative care units can establish communication with another unit elsewhere in the world to exchange information, reports, teaching materials and modules, research ideas, etc., which may lead to exchange visits by staff members.
Each arranges to provide accommodation for their visitors so expenses are limited to travel costs.
The world of hospice and palliative care is still small but growing rapidly. It needs all the cooperation and mutual understanding it is possible to make. Twinning is one way to do it, one way to help each other and one way to learn from each other.
Application to our Twinning and Hosting Program is Free.
