Mission Statement
The reason why I want to join the EAPC Board is that since 1986 I have been working to promote palliative care in my country. I have been involved in most governmental activities promoting and recommending palliative medicine and I have through numerous reports, chronicles, interviews, letters etc worked for the implementation of palliative medicine in the Danish health care system. At the moment I am involved in implementing palliative medicine in the region of Copenhagen.
I am and have been deeply involved in research activities in palliative care nationally and internationally as it follows from my CV. I have for to periods been a member of the scientific committee EAPC research congresses (Venice 2006 and Trondheim 2008). Clinically I am responsible for palliative care at the National Hospital (Rigshospitalet) in Copenhagen.
In my career and struggle for palliative medicine I find the time has come to take part in this important matter internationally. The development of palliative medicine in Denmark have until now been slow and sparse and I find it extremely important to combine national and international perspectives to improve palliative care.
