OBJECTIVE
It is imperative that nurses are proficient and comfortable providing care to patients at the end of life. Recent studies show that nurses' knowledge of end-of-life care is less than optimal. Effective, evidence-based methods to infuse palliative and end-of-life care education into the undergraduate nursing curriculum are needed.
METHODS
A descriptive pre- and postassessment evaluating senior nursing students' acquisition of knowledge on end-of-life care after attending the End-of-Life Nursing Education Consortium (ELNEC) core course was conducted. The course evaluation included qualitative statements.
RESULTS
Before the ELNEC course, one-third of the students had cared for a dying patient during clinical rotations, yet 85% reported they had not received adequate training in end-of-life care. Posttest questions related to palliative care, symptom management, communication, and grief indicated that students acquired significant knowledge after participating in the ELNEC course ( P < .05).
CONCLUSION
The ELNEC core course is an effective way to improve nursing students' knowledge of palliative and end-of-life care.
目的
护士必须熟练且自如地为临终患者提供护理。近期研究表明，护士对临终护理的知识掌握欠佳。需要有效的、基于证据的方法将姑息治疗和临终护理教育融入本科护理课程。
方法
进行了一项描述性的前后评估，以评价高年级护理专业学生参加临终护理教育联盟（ELNEC）核心课程后对临终护理知识的掌握情况。课程评估包括定性陈述。
结果
在参加ELNEC课程之前，三分之一的学生在临床轮转期间护理过临终患者，但85%的学生报告称他们未接受过足够的临终护理培训。与姑息治疗、症状管理、沟通和悲伤相关的后测问题表明，学生在参加ELNEC课程后获得了重要知识（P<.05）。
结论
ELNEC核心课程是提高护生对姑息治疗和临终护理知识的有效途径。
