Our first international internship: a hands-on experience of clinical practice in palliative care, in a real hospital setting, with time for reflection and prayer.
Speaker
Dr Ana Filipa Varges Gomes
Medical Oncology and Palliative Care department, Hospital of Portimão
Members discovered palliative and oncology care alongside experienced professionals of the Hospital of Portimão, reflecting on the medical, human and spiritual dimensions of accompanying patients at the end of life. The week also included a public session “Cuidar com fé e esperança” (Care with hope) and time to enjoy the Algarve together.
