Academic publisher SAGE has announced that flagship medical journal Palliative Medicine will become the official journal of the Association for Palliative Medicine. Already the official research journal of the European Association for Palliative Care (EAPC), the new agreement extends the readership of the journal to about 1000 members of the APM, including doctors based in UK, Ireland, and overseas.
Palliative Medicine is a peer reviewed scholarly journal dedicated to improving knowledge and clinical practice in the palliative care of patients with far advanced disease. It reflects the multidisciplinary approach that is the hallmark of effective palliative care.
Formed in 1986, The Association for Palliative Medicine of Great Britain and Ireland (APM) is an association of doctors who work in hospices and specialist palliative care units in hospitals. Palliative Medicine is the longest standing multidisciplinary scholarly journal dedicated to improving knowledge and clinical practice in the palliative care of patients with far advanced disease.
