Results of the National Palliative Medicine Survey
Results of the National Palliative Medicine Survey have been posted on our web site. The survey is rich with data that you can refer to in your own work. The documents are posted in both French and English. The documents include the original questionnaire, a data report of responses to all questions, and a Highlights document that summarizes Key Findings.
The reports are the culmination of a CSPCP-led project conducted in collaboration with four partner organizations (CMA, CFPC, Royal College, and TVN). The results can be used by researchers, policy makers, and health care decision makers to inform policy, practice, human resource planning, and negotiations.
