Tracey Human, RN CHPCN (c), will session will introduce attendees to the work of the Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Palliative Care Network (IDD PCN) and the Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) Palliative Care Resource Guide and Toolkit that will be released this year. People with Intellectual and Developmental Disability (PWIDD), many with distinct complex needs, lack equitable access to palliative care, including providers with competency in IDD palliative care. Existing palliative care frameworks and tools are not directly transferable to IDD and require specification.
