Description
An account of the resource
OBJECTIVE: To determine the impact of an innovative professional educational approach on clinicians' confidence and ability to make institutional improvements in pediatric palliative care. DESIGN: Evaluation to assess impact of educational intervention on participants and participant institutions. SETTING: Retreats lasting 2.5 days. PARTICIPANTS: Physicians, nurses, psychosocial staff, and bereaved parents. INTERVENTION: "Relational learning across boundaries" pedagogy. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Analysis of participant questionnaires (n = 782, response rate of 84%), team leader surveys (n = 72, response rate of 71%), and follow-up interview with subsample (n = 21, response rate of 81%). Outcomes included confidence to act and institutional improvements achieved. RESULTS: Seventy-four percent of team leaders reported significant or moderate improvement in pediatric palliative care after the retreat; only 1% reported no improvement. Ninety-one percent credited the retreat experience as being somewhat or very instrumental to the improvements, which included the establishment of pediatric palliative care and bereavement programs, improvements in interdisciplinary communication, care coordination, clinician-family interaction at the bedside, and educational programs. Participants attributed the impact of the 2.5-day retreat to its key pedagogical features, involvement of family members as equal participants and participation of colleagues from other disciplines and care settings, as well as the ground rules used for the small group seminars. CONCLUSIONS: The intervention was successful in improving clinicians' confidence and catalyzed improvements in pediatric palliative care within participating institutions. Relational learning holds promise for professional learning, especially when the educational goal is tied to enabling a shift in social and ethical norms.

An account of the resource
OBJECTIVE: This paper identifies key features associated with high-quality educational materials for end-of-life curriculum. METHODS: The End of Life Physician Education Resource Center (EPERC), located on the Internet at provides a clearinghouse for end-of-life materials. All materials posted on EPERC are peer reviewed by content and education experts for quality. An analysis of reviewers' ratings, from the EPERC rating form and their narrative comments, revealed common strengths and weaknesses of submitted materials. Examples of exemplar materials from the EPERC website are presented to highlight key strengths. DISCUSSION: Articulating the best qualities of submitted materials provides clear standards for those seeking to develop or adopt high quality end-of-life educational materials.

Description
An account of the resource
In most industrialized countries today, the death of a child is a rare phenomenon. When it occurs, however, it is usually within a hospital setting, after the child has received complex and often long-term medical care aimed at curing or controlling a serious disease. Thus, health professionals are increasingly exposed to the dying process and death of a child with little prior education to help them deal with the particular needs of young patients and minimal preparation in recognizing and handling their personal reactions in the face of death. Comprehensive training programs in pediatric hospice care could help professionals cope with the growing and unique needs of terminally ill children and of their families but these should be differentiated from training programs designed for the terminal care of adult patients. The purpose of this article is to describe and discuss some of the challenges involved in the training of health professionals (pediatricians, nurses, psychologists, social workers, clergy) who wish to provide services to dying children and grieving families. These challenges include (a) definition of educational objectives, (b) selection of teaching methods and content of training, (c) definition and teaching of emotional involvement, (d) support of training participants, (e) promotion of interdisciplinary collaboration, (f) evaluation of the training process and its outcomes, and (g) background and skills of educators. The challenges are discussed and references are made to illustrate how they were met by a 600-hour training program on home-based palliative care for children dying of cancer conducted at the University of Athens.
