XVIII Conference on support for families with chronically ill patients

  Date:
 Type: Conference
 Line of Knowledge: 
 Location: Donostia-San Sebastián

The presence of a chronically ill person in the home causes many changes in families both in terms of caring for them and trying to meet their multiple physical and emotional needs. Families need adequate information to know how to organize themselves, care for them, maintain their usual activities if possible and how to obtain support from both the health and social welfare teams, especially when their dependence on other people increases. In this conference we will review the basics to make the care of the sick more humane.
