All Ireland Institute for Hospice and Palliative Care

All Ireland Institute of Hospice and Palliative Care (AIIHPC), is an all island organisation, comprised of a Consortium of eight health agencies and four universities, all working to improve the experience of supportive, palliative and end-of-life care on the island of Ireland, by enhancing the capacity to develop knowledge, promote learning, influence policy and shape practice. The aim is to secure best care for those approaching end-of-life.

AIIHPC secured funding from The Atlantic Philanthropies with additional funding from the Irish Hospice Foundation, Irish Cancer Society, the Health Research Board and Research and Development Division of the Public Health Agency. The twelve Management Consortium Partners also provide funding to AIIHPC.

AIIHPC's work is focused on three key areas - Education, Research and Policy and Practice.
