A NATIONAL initiative aimed at raising awareness and strengthening palliative care services across the country.
The programme is dedicated to improving the quality of life for patients with life-limiting illnesses and their families by promoting compassionate care, advocacy, and professional excellence.
The launch, which coincides with the global observance of World Hospice and Palliative Care Day in October, brought together healthcare leaders, policymakers, civil society organizations, and patient advocacy groups.
Stakeholders emphasized the importance of palliative care as a human right and called for greater investment in health systems to ensure that all Ghanaians, regardless of income or location, can access appropriate care.
According to organizers, October for Palliative Care Excellence will serve as both an advocacy platform and a call to action.
