National and Professional Associations in the Czech Republic
The Czech Republic has a national association of hospice care providers (SPHP), formed in 1997 and a palliative care section was established in 1999 within the Czech Pain Society.
The Czech Republic was a signatory of the Poznan Declaration (1998) and is a member of the Eastern and Central European Palliative Care Task Force (ECEPT). Its palliative care leaders subscribe, therefore, to the call for national policies, palliative care education, increased drug availability, a growth in palliative care services and an increase in public awareness.
