Dr. Donna Wilson Caregiver Award – Nominations are OPEN
Do you know a person who provides exemplary care for somebody with a life-limiting illness? Nominate them for the Dr. Donna Wilson Caregiver Award!
Informal caregivers are the backbone of palliative care. We depend on them to fill the gaps in care but the vital role they play in palliative care is rarely recognized. This is your chance to shine a light on the unpaid, informal palliative caregiver in your life.
Don’t delay! Nominations close on Friday October 29, 2021 at 5 p.m.
Nominate a Caregiver

Distract yourself from distress by choosing one of AHPCA’s Relaxation Moment videos. Watch the images. Listen to the sounds. Give yourself a hand massage while you watch. Breath deeply. Relax.
