Prof. Haneke Brits from our Faculty of Health Sciences recently completed an international course in Palliative Care Leadership.
The Institute for Palliative Medicine, a teaching affiliate of the University of California San Diego (UCSD), awarded Prof. Brits a Diploma in International Palliative Care Leadership. She is one of only 19 people worldwide to complete this unique two-year course.
“It has been an honour to work with Prof. Brits. We know that she has made great contributions to palliative medicine during these two years. We are certain that you have seen how her leadership skills and capacities have grown,” the Institute for Palliative Medicine stated in a letter in recognition of her participation.
Prof. Brits is currently consultant and associate professor at the UFS Department of Family Medicine.
