Founded by Dr E Divakaran and colleagues, the Pain and Palliative Care Society at Trissur has established a successful palliative care institute at Trissur, the city often called the cultural capital of Kerala.

Two of us at Pallium India had an opportunity to attend a refresher course in palliative care for doctors held at the institute and to see first-hand the tremendous progress made by the center.

The course demonstrated the great value of educational opportunities for professionals who go through short training programs and feel the need to update their knowledge.

We congratulate the Trissur team.
