Lakehead University’s Centre for Education and Research on Aging & Health (CERAH) is hosting the Northwestern Ontario Palliative Care Conference 2023 – “Navigating the Journey Together: Caring for Ourselves & Others.”

This is CERAH’s first in-person conference event since 2019 and will take place October 3-5 at the Nor’Wester Hotel in Thunder Bay. This is a wonderful opportunity for health and social care providers, researchers, students, administrators, palliative care volunteers, and others, to come together as a community to connect and support each other while learning valuable tools and skills grounded in best practice.

In addition to recognized regional champions in palliative care, such as Holly Prince and Dr. Kathy Kortes-Miller, we are thrilled to have several highly-esteemed presenters coming to Thunder Bay for this event, including Dr. Hsien Seow and Dr. Samantha Winemaker, creators of the Waiting Room Revolution podcast and co-authors of the soon-to-be released book: Hope for the Best, Plan for the Rest: 7 Keys for Navigating a Life-Limiting Diagnosis (all registrants will receive a copy and have the opportunity to have it signed by the authors!). Dr. Kathryn Mannix from the UK will also provide an exclusive keynote presentation on the first day of the conference.

Please see the attached poster and the conference event page for more information.
REGISTRATION DEADLINE: September 22, 2023.
