The XIII International Conference of the Spanish Society of Palliative Care will be held under the motto “Adequacy of care”
As stated by Dr. Marcelino Mosquera, President of the Organizing Committee of the XIII International Conference 2019 «Caring for the palliative patient in its many aspects is a challenge for all of us who dedicate ourselves to this task.
