🎉 UM-HM Paediatric Palliative Care Symposium 2026 (PPCS2026)
➡️ THEME: Caring Through Uncertainty – Palliative Care in Neuro-Genetic Conditions
🗓️ DATE: Sat, 19 – Mon, 21 September 2026
📍 VENUE: Hospis Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur
Children living with neuro-genetic conditions often face complex and unpredictable illness journeys – deeply affecting not only their quality of life, but also the emotional and practical realities of their families. Supporting them goes beyond clinical expertise; it requires compassionate communication, rigorous symptom control, and a holistic palliative care approach that walks alongside both child and family every step of the way.
Healthcare professionals are invited to join this immersive 2½-day symposium and discover how palliative care can transform the way we support children with neuro-genetic conditions and their families. Through expert talks, powerful parent perspectives, and interactive group work, the programme will address symptom management, family support, communication skills for navigating complexity and uncertainty, and ethical decision-making.
Gain practical knowledge and skills to care for patients more confidently and effectively, while learning how to integrate palliative care earlier and more meaningfully across the illness trajectory.
This symposium is proudly brought to you through a collaboration between Hospis Malaysia (HM) and Universiti Malaya (UM).
