Our Campaigns
APHN's Covid-19 Care Packages
The APHN Covid-19 Care Packages were designed as a morale booster for palliative care workers in the Asia Pacific region working at the frontline during this Covid-19 pandemic.
Some are battling to provide medical care, medicines and psychosocial support to very sick patients at home despite city lockdowns. Others are working in hospitals or are being transferred to the frontline to take care of Covid-19 patients with limited protective equipment and masks. These heroes put their lives at risk everyday, and we know, when the situation is over, not all of them will be around.
The care package will consist of different items* (e.g. surgical masks, easy to eat snacks for them to consume at the end of a long working shift, vitamin C etc.) with notes of encouragement to show our support for their selfless sacrifice during this period.
ALL donations received will go towards purchasing items for the care package. If you wish to donate items directly, please feel free to contact us via email at [email protected].
Thank you in advance for enabling us to send these care packages to palliative care workers working tirelessly during this Covid-19 pandemic in the Asia Pacific region. Let us continue to spread kindness!
*items may vary depending on the need of the particular sector
APHN's Travel Bursaries
The Asia Pacific Hospice Palliative Care Network (APHN) continuously organises programmes for training and education to equip those in developing countries with knowledge on palliative care so that they may apply what they have learnt to help patients in their institutions. Currently, one of the active programmes is our Clinical Observership.
The 5-full day programme consists of 2 days of classroom teachings and case discussions by local faculty, and 3 days of clinical attachments to the hospital service, inpatient hospice, day care and home care service. During the observership, participants will shadow palliative care teams to learn what a hospice palliative care service is through experiential learning and immersion with patients and the palliative care team in the clinical setting. At the same time, participants will have opportunities to interact with the doctors, nurses, social workers and other palliative care team members at separate visitations.
This is a great opportunity to experience, learn, and network with professionals from the palliative care field.
With your donation, you can help provide an opportunity for a palliative care worker to attend the observership for free or at a fraction of the cost.
We appeal to you to support our cause. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
