Stream 2 | Panel Discussion | Symptom Management in Paediatric Palliative Care
Session Description
The focus of this session is symptom management rather than pain management. The session will look at non-pharmacological approaches to symptom management and quality of life for young people with palliative care needs. Approaches you may not immediately think about when you think of symptom management. The session is about collaboration with clinical partners, providing coordinated and comprehensive, individualised care. We need to think holistically about the whole patient, spiritual and emotional needs as well as physical and medical treatments. The session will look at alternate approaches to symptom management, including radiotherapy, music therapy, and occupational therapy.
