@tadaamofficial Hier ook al de hele week problemen. Gelukkig nog wel internet. Overweeg sterk om Tadaam op te geven... Jammer

I wrote an editorial discussing findings from a new published population based matched cohort study from Canada that suggests potential benefits of palliative care in some non-cancer illnesses.

[The BMJ @bmj_latest]

Few studies have been able to provide convincing evidence suggesting a positive impact of palliative care among adults dying from non-cancer illness. Arno Maetens looks at a study providing evidence for diversion from acute services, except in dementia

Veel te weinig mensen in ons land krijgen palliatieve zorg aan huis bij hun levenseinde. Nochtans is men veel beter af mét dan zonder, wijst een eerste grote studie uit @integrate_sbo @AMaetens https://t.co/Qz0chrxnFy

#phrpc @Vds_Steven questions lack of interest in volunteers in public health & palliative care movement

[EoLC Research Group @eolc_research]

We started the abstract sessions on epidemiology and population health. Colleague @AMaetens starts with a presentation on trends in timing and uptake of palliative home care support in Belgium from 2010-2015 #phrpc

[EoLC Research Group @eolc_research]

"Patients who used at least one palliative home care measure received more appropriate care and had less total care costs that those who had not". @Vds_Steven presents the study of @integrate_sbo colleague @AMaetens at @palcarecongress #palcarecongress

That $35 that scientific journals charge you to read a paper goes 100% to the publisher, 0% to the authors. If you just email us to ask for our papers, we are allowed to send them to you for free, and we will be genuinely delighted to do so. https://t.co/NHEfiOMLfG

Dat je eersteklassers vraagt op het laatste proefwerk van het schooljaar drie zaken op te schrijven die ze dit jaar geleerd hebben bij geschiedenis. En dat een leerling iets schrijft waar volwassenen misschien ook nog wat aan kunnen hebben. ❤️
