Center for Palliative Care Research and Education
Led by faculty from the College of Nursing on behalf of the health sciences colleges and welcoming participation from colleges campus-wide, the Center for Palliative Care Research and Education focuses on research and education to improve palliative care for persons and animals throughout Florida, across the nation, and all around the world. The palliative care philosophy values, respects and supports individual dignity and autonomy, as well as recognizes the need for informed decision making to achieve comfort and relieve stress during and after serious illness.
