For an extensive collection of palliative care resources for health-care professionals, we recommend that you check out the health-care professional section of the Canadian Virtual Hospice. This site has a number of valuable resources, including:

• Tools for practice, where their clinical team has identified protocols, advanced practices, and assessment and evaluation tools to help support your practice
• a listing of upcoming courses and conferences
• Ask a Professional, where their team of palliative care experts is ready to answer your questions about terminal illness, end-of-life care, loss and bereavement

You may also want to refer your patients and their families to the patient information and support section of this site.
