Project ECHO (Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes) is a global model for knowledge sharing and capacity building in healthcare and other sectors. The project brings together communities of healthcare practitioners for learning and support, with the goal of improving care through collaborative problem-solving.
Interested in developing your knowledge of Palliative Care? ECHO Sessions provide an opportunity for like-minded healthcare professionals to learn, share best practice and discuss ideas in an online forum.
