Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Palliative Care
  • Qualitative Research

Background:

  • Limited exposure to clinical palliative care (PC) for medical students, particularly in community settings.
  • Need for medical schools to integrate comprehensive PC training addressing diverse patient needs.
  • Focus on capturing student experiences within a community-based PC course.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore medical students' experiences with a community-based palliative care course.
  • To understand how experiential learning impacts students' perception of PC.
  • To identify key elements of effective PC education for undergraduates.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative study utilizing two focus groups with medical students in Germany.
  • Course combined didactic teaching with community-based learning.
  • Thematic analysis of transcribed focus group discussions.

Main Results:

  • Fifteen female students (2nd-5th year) participated.
  • Key themes included authenticity, demystifying PC through patient contact, translating theory to practice, and observing role models.
  • Direct patient interaction enhanced understanding of PC's holistic nature.

Conclusions:

  • Student encounters beyond medical records improved grasp of holistic PC.
  • Community-based learning reinforced the value of integrated healthcare systems.
  • Experiential learning is vital for effective palliative care medical education.
