A public awareness initiative on palliative care in Kuwait, led by the Kuwait Palliative Care Association and SANAD Hospice Lebanon, with support from Zain Telecommunications.
Through this campaign, the Kuwait Palliative Care Association and SANAD draw on their experience in promoting awareness of palliative care as a human right to health and as a holistic, patient- and family-centered approach that protects dignity and enhances quality of life.
The campaign aims to increase public understanding of palliative care and its core principles, including the foundations of sharing information with patients about their diagnosis and the progression of their illness.
The campaign was officially launched with a short introductory video featuring excerpts from interviews with Dr. Amina Al Ansari, palliative care physician and President of the Kuwait Palliative Care Association; Lubna Izziddin, Founder of SANAD Hospice Lebanon; as well as physicians, psychologists, family members of patients, and several influential figures in media and life coaching.
Full interviews are available on our YouTube channel.
