Compassionate Oregon: a Community Conversation about Public Health Palliative Care

A public health approach to palliative care is a health promotion approach to end of life care, one that views the community as an equal partner in the long and complex task of providing quality health care at the end of life. Just as health, according to WHO, is ‘everyone’s responsibility’ so too is death, dying, loss and care.


Join us for a conversation with Luc Deliens, Phd, President of Public Health Palliative Care International. This 90-minute community gathering will be a place to learn and share ideas about cross-sector collaboration, workforce development and the involvement of all members of the community in creating a Compassionate Community model of care in Central Oregon.


In partnership with COCC Public Health, The Peaceful Presence Project welcomes you for this engaging event. Limited to 50 attendees.
