In the Seniors Health Research Transfer Network (SHRTN), a Community of Practice (CoP) is a group of people who come together to exchange information and knowledge on a specific topic related to seniors' health and health care. Please visit the SHRTN website at http://www.SHRTN.on.ca.

SHRTN CoP members include paid and unpaid caregivers, researchers, policy makers, educators, specialist librarians and others who are interested in the topic.

The End-of-Life Care (CoP) is one of SHRTN's 19 Communities of Practice. The purpose of the CoPs is to provide hospice palliative care providers with the mechanisms to work in collaboration. HNHB HPC Network members would find participation in the End-of-Life Care CoP valuable. To view the End-of-Life Care CoP brochure click here.
