Paediatric Palliative and Supportive Psychological Care Service
It has been acknowledged that “Effective palliative care requires a broad multidisciplinary approach that includes the family and makes use of available community resources”.

Presenter: Mr Brandon Ho (Malaysia)
Moderator: Dr Tan Chai Eng (Malaysia)
Date: 23rd February 2021, Tuesday
Time: 1pm to 2pm (GMT +8)
Synopsis:
The grieving parents of a sick child that dies experience a transition to life without their child. It involves a journey of transformation, finding new meanings and connections with their child. Grieving is a process. The journey of transformation needs to start and progress, and integrated into a new life, before complete transition is finally achieved. The ability to navigate this does not come naturally to everyone. Most parents in this situation would need some guidance along the way.
