Mapping Palliative Care in the State of Hawai‘i

  • Where is palliative care available in Hawai‘i?
  • How many people are receiving palliative care and in what settings?
  • What are the gaps and opportunities for improving palliative care?

This is the first time that we have done a statewide mapping project or calculated how much palliative care is being provided where and what the gaps are. View the recording and check out our web page and read the full report.
