Blending voices to improve palliative care hasbeen a goal of HPNA for many years. As we reachout to our colleagues from other nursing spe-cialty organizations to ‘‘silo bust,’’ we have suc-cessfully created several truly collaborativepartners. The Oncology Nursing Society (ONS)has been a true partner in many ways and thispreconference is just one more way HPNA andONS have collaborated. The intent of this pre-conference is to look at the common issueswithin our blended specialties fromboth a legisla-tive and regulatory perspective, as well as to eval-uate the impact of initiatives in quality and safetycommon to both. The impact of the IOM Futuresof Nursing Report and other significant reports onprofessional education will be reviewed. A classiconcology/palliative care case study will be pre-sented in a highly interactive manner to bring to-gether the impact of all of thee issues on clinicalcare. Join the leaders and expert clinicians thatintersect both specialties as we truly ‘‘blend ourvoices’’ to improve palliative care.
