Description
The project implemented an educational intervention across 30 nursing homes. The intervention consisted of five 2-hour seminars addressing the knowledge and skills considered necessary to provide evidence-based palliative care in nursing homes. The content was based on fundamental principles of palliative care. The topics covered by each seminar were: 1) the palliative approach and dignified care; 2) NoK; 3) existence and dying; 4) symptom relief and 5) collaborative care.
