Caring for people at the edges – November 2024 Leuven
What more can we do, as doctors and healthcare providers, for refugees, the isolated elderly, the terminally ill and patients with chronic psychiatric disorders?
November 16th 2024 Programme
“Caring for People at the Edges of our Healthcare System”
In his encyclical Fratelli Tutti, Pope Francis invites us to go to the periphery. Certain groups of patients are not always receiving the right care.
Let us be inspired by the Holy Father Damiaan De Veuster, who was fully committed to leprosy patients in Molokai. Let us ask him to bless our work of caring for people at the edges.
The programme starts at 8.30 am.
Closing eucharist at 5.30 pm.
