This is a recording of the webinar “Complex Continual Care for those with living DEEs and their families,” which was held on November 30th, 2021. Pediatric hospice support is not your grandparents end-of-life care. Come learn how pediatric complex continual (aka hospice or palliative) care can help improve quality of life for medically complex children and their families.

Join us to hear more about if and when pediatric hospice support might be right for your family and learn about models that provide a continuum of care for children and their families from time of diagnosis, maintaining hope for a cure, and through bereavement, if a cure is not attained.
