Free Online Lecture Explores Hospice and Palliative Care Options on June 10

The Hospice and Palliative Care Network (HPVN) Schweinfurt–Bad Kissingen–Rhön-Grabfeld is hosting a free online lecture on June 10, 2026, at 5:00 PM. Titled 'Hospice and Palliative Care Options', the two-hour event aims to inform professionals, families, and the public about support services in the Main-Rhön region. For a decade, the HPVN has worked to connect those involved in caring for seriously ill and dying people. The network organises training, develops new care approaches, and funds projects like a needs assessment for a future inpatient hospice. Its governing partners share personnel costs, with statutory health insurance covering half of the network coordinator’s position.

The upcoming event will explain the work of local services and institutions. Attendees will learn about available support options, helping to reduce barriers for those seeking assistance. Registration is required, and participants will receive an access link by email roughly a week before the session.

The lecture is open to healthcare professionals, affected individuals, and anyone interested in palliative care. By presenting clear information, the HPVN hopes to guide people through difficult situations. Those wishing to attend must register in advance to secure their place.
