Importance of appreciating all unique contexts - homelessness, paediatric care, care of older people. Legal aspects of #palliativecare#21OPCC
International panel very strong on not "othering" - we can all learn from each other in a global community. COVID-19 has made that even clearer. Yes!! Well done international panel team. You rock :) @OdetteSpruyt@ntizimira@kpettus@APHPCN Dr Ghauri, Dr Malama #21OPCC
Technology enables different way of connecting, leverage different ways of learning. Virtual #21OPCC is a real credit to the @Pall_Care_Aus team and all others who helped make it happen.
Big picture thinking has been a great feature of #21OPCC
Workforce in #palliativecare. Advocacy has historically been described paternalistically. Shifted to truly understand the needs, the environment, the person's wants. Advocacy much more than individual level #21OPCC
All of us are advocates. We have to be better at communicating our value as #palliativecare workers. How will we evolve our models of care to #LeaveNoOneBehind ? Embrace the challenge. It's up to us to change. #21OPCC

Ways to be prepared and hopeful facing serious illness. Walk 2 roads - hope for the best and prepare for the rest! Zoom out - understand the big picture. Know your style - find someone who meshes well with you. @HSeowPhD@SammyWinemaker#21OPCC
#palliativecare is not about planning for death, it's about planning for the future. We are more death-avoiding than death-denying. #21OPCC@HSeowPhD
