Palliative Pupus August 2026
August 19 @ 8:00 am – 5:00 pm HST
Palliative Pupus is a unique opportunity to hear about a palliative care case. It is good for palliative care practitioners to learn and increase skills. It is also an excellent opportunity to learn about what palliative care really is and what our amazing colleagues actually do. Cases usually involve a range of practitioners including doctor, nurse, chaplain and social workers and cover physical, emotion and spiritual issues.
This month’s case will describe collaboration between palliative care agencies on Hawai’i Island, providing care to a young cancer survivor, highlighting the value of palliative care across the care continuum. Presentation will be by North Hawaii Hospice and the Kupu Care Program at Hawaiʻi Care Choices. It demonstrates the transition from Hawaiʻi’s Medicaid / Med-QUEST Palliative Care Program to traditional hospice care and illustrates the value of seamless collaboration across the continuum of serious illness care.
