PalliCHAT: Practical Palliative Care CPD
PALPRAC PalliCHATs are CPD-accredited palliative care discussions for healthcare professionals, focused on practical clinical questions and real-world scenarios encountered in everyday practice. They form part of PALPRAC’s palliative care education programme, supporting ongoing learning, shared experience and good clinical practice.
Attendance at PalliCHATs is free and open to all healthcare professionals.
PALPRAC members receive CPD points at no cost. Non-members and PALNET Connectors are very welcome to attend free of charge; however, should CPD points be required for verified attendance of more than 90% of the session, a fee of R100 will apply.
