EPEC-Neurology

The EPEC-Neurology curriculum, a collaboration between EPEC and the International Neuropalliative Care Society (INPCS), is available through the INPCS website.

This is a curriculum based on the Education in Palliative and End-of-Life Care (EPEC) program. It has been designed to teach primary palliative care skills to health care professionals of all disciplines providing neurological care.  In addition, this curriculum can also be used by palliative care clinicians to teach the nuances of neuropalliative care.

Each module offers approximately 60 minutes of content in PowerPoint format, and can be taught on its own, or as part of a series. A particular focus of EPEC-Neurology is on teaching presentation skills and creating an interactive learning environment. To that end, we recommend that clinicians teaching EPEC-Neurology review the introductory module on teaching techniques. Each module has presenter notes to guide the facilitator.
