This course provides students the opportunity to examine the palliative care movement. The changing paradigm of longevity, multiple chronic illnesses, and progressive diseases has impacted the perception of quality of life and in turn has altered how death and dying is managed in the United States. Palliative care can be initiated at any stage of an illness with a focus on physiological, psychological, social, and spiritual needs of the patient and offers a continuum of care through death. This course examines the foundations of palliative care services, introduces tools and resources, and discusses ethical issues pertaining to end-of-life dilemmas and advanced care planning.This course was previously NUR-203224.
