Staff at the 'Hospice Angelus' Chisinau report on the difficulties of funding services:
Even if our achievements are considerable, they are difficult to obtain because of our country's financial situation. The lack of help from our state, the poverty of our population, the inexistence of an experienced partner make our work much more difficult.5
'Second Breath' has had support from OSI for translation of documents, a training fellowship at St Christopher's Hospice, London, and to create a national palliative care training programme and encourage its adoption at the state level.
The Zubresti North Carolina Hospice is working in partnership with The Carolinas Center for Hospice and End of Life Care, Greensboro, Carolina, USA; this group has also had training at Casa Sperantei educational centre in Brasov, Romania. Funding from the USA has been pledged to renovate the former hospital in Zubresti6, and this will provide a facility with 15 inpatient beds.
