Abstract
The purpose of this educational project was to integrate end-of-life and palliative care into a nurse practitionerâdoctor of nursing practice course through didactic education and clinical immersion. The innovative and memorable clinical immersion in palliative care was highly rated by the majority of the students, with all students commenting on being positively impacted by observation of the family meeting. Effectiveness of the didactic and clinical immersion was analyzed with a pre/posttest and student evaluations. This project identifies methods for faculty to integrate end-of-life and palliative care into their curriculum to enhance students' ability to deliver evidence-based and compassionate care.
