Learning Labs

HBPCC selected hospitals to serve as learning labs based on their commitment to and success in providing high-quality end-of-life care.  Palliative care services and programs at each lab differ in terms of scope, management, organization, and offerings, providing for a wide array of learning options and experiences for participating hospitals.  Although based on the core curriculum, each site visit is tailored as much as possible to fit the needs of the participants.


Representatives of the seven Learning Labs met
in Harrisburg, PA in June 2005 to launch the program nationally.
