Hospice and Palliative Care for Undergraduate Nursing Education: Results from a Delphi Study
Abstract:
There is an urgent need to strengthen the nursing workforce through hospice and palliative care education to support patients living with serious illness. The aim of this study was to identify skills/topics in hospice and palliative care for undergraduate nursing education. We conducted a two-round online Delphi Survey of hospice and palliative care leaders and clinicians in New York State between June and August 2022. Participants were asked to list and rate the importance of clinical skills and topics in hospice and palliative care for undergraduate nursing education. Twenty-eight participants completed Round One and 21 participants completed Round Two. Topics ranked as extremely important were goals of care, patient/family education, communication skills, advance directives, medication management, pain management, and symptom management. Our findings highlight the importance of including the perspective of healthcare systems leaders and clinicians in discussions about training of future nurses to meet the needs of patients with serious illness and their families.
