IAPCON 2025 with beautiful landscapes!
The 32nd IAPCON 2025, hosted by IAPC Jammu & Kashmir and AIIMS Jammu, focused on evidence-based palliative care.
The event offered valuable insights into compassionate leadership practices, implementation challenges, and the role of palliative care in pain relief.
The standout session, “The Elephant in the Room,” addressed sexual health concerns in chronic illness by Dr.Sunil and Dr. Savita Luke. Neuro-Palliative Care sessions covered dementia, childhood epilepsy, and muscular dystrophy by Dr. Rajendra Dhamijha and Dr. Frank Ferris discussed leadership in palliative care, while Dr. Megan Doherty emphasized integration into primary healthcare. Therapeutic approaches like yoga and music therapy were explored.
One of the sessions also showcased palliative care developments in Jammu & Kashmir’s government institutions, reflecting steady progress .Along with all this learning, there were cultural events, delicious food, great weather, and a beautiful view of the surrounding landscape. I am thankful to have got this opportunity to attend this event and connect with many stakeholders to enhance palliative care services in my region. I would especially like to thank Mr. Rohit Lahori for his gracious support and hospitality for the entire Pallium India Team.
