Review for International Association for Hospice and Palliative Care Inc, Houston, TX, USA
IAHPC is a dedicated organization that truly advocates constantly and tirelessly for access to palliative care to relieve the suffering of millions living globally with serious illnesses. Especially when it comes to access to controlled substances (opioids) for pain management, IAHPC is continuously on the front line for international, and national meetings bringing the voice of millions of palliative care patients, who need available affordable, and accessible medications. IAHPC functions as an important partner, with many NGOs and international governor bodies in LIC, and LMIC to ensure access to essential medicines for palliative care patients and to provide education, and training for healthcare professionals across the system to educate about safe prescribing, availability of controlled substances, and symptom management for patients living with serious illnesses. As an IAHPC board member, I am honored and privileged to be part of such an inspiring organization that has a clear vision and mission to advance palliative care education, access, and research globally.
