AAHPM Call for Case Conference

AAHPM has posted the call for fellows cases on the front page. This is the first time the case conference has received this kind of publicity so make sure you submit your case!

Here is the link to the submission form.

From the submission form:

The call for submissions for the 2008 Case Conferences will be open from September 1 through October 24, 2007. Case Conferences are 20-minute complex case studies that feature the interdisciplinary team. The case study can focus on any of the domains of palliative care faced by the interdisciplinary team including: physical, psychological, social, and spiritual.

This will be the 4th year for the Case Conference, which serves a unique opportunity for student members of the field to present at a national conference, and gain the experience needed to become future leaders. In the past, all cases have been submitted and presented by physicians, but submissions are open to all levels of students of graduate nursing, social work and chaplaincy programs as well as medical students, residents and fellows. The Case Conferences will be presented during the Annual Assembly of AAHPM & HPNA in Tampa, FL on Saturday February 2, 2008.
