The Canadian Virtual Hospice would like to establish an award to acknowledge the exemplary work of psychosocial oncology professionals and students, in collaboration with CAPO.
The purpose of this award is to promote progress in research, education and clinical practice in the area of palliative care and the dissemination of information related to the psychosocial care of individuals receiving palliative care. The award is given to support oncology professionals in continuing education activities.
This annual award will be presented to a CAPO member who submits the best poster or oral presentation in the area of palliative care at the annual CAPO conference. The presentation may reflect clinical practice, education or research related to palliative care.
