CHALLENGES OF PALLIATIVE CARE

The 9th Annual International Conference on Hospice and Palliative Care provided many stimuli to workers in practice and also at the level of development and support of palliative and hospice care in Slovakia. It was seen as a source of inspiration and raised questions on how to apply and develop in Slovakia those aspects that are very helpful in some other countries and are not yet available there. This conference is very important and the Faculty of Health Sciences and Social Work at the University of Trnava and the University of Scranton have been working on it for many years.
