Welcome!

	The Hospice and Palliative Nurses Foundation (HPNF) was incorporated in 1998 to support research and education for nurses and healthcare team members working in end-of-life care and to strive to meet the strategic goals of the HPNA (Hospice and Palliative Nurses Association). We are committed to the belief that quality care for people with serious and advanced illness lies in evidence-based practice. HPNF is a source for funding and support to individuals and groups who want to increase their knowledge in end-of-life care and issues through research and education.
