Abstract
An accelerating aging society and rise in serious illnesses has led to an increase in deaths and made the demand for palliative care even greater. An integrated review was conducted to identify the impact of interprofessional education (IPE) on palliative/end of life (EOL) care for unlicensed health care students with a multidisciplinary approach. The databases searched included MEDLINE, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Education Resources Information Center (ERIC), PsycINFO, and the Cochrane Library’s CENTRAL. Fifteen studies were included. Participants’ disciplines included medicine, nursing, pharmacy, physical therapy, occupational therapy, social work, chaplain, public health and psychology. Nine were pre-post design and others were post course evaluations. One research study was an interventional trial with a comparative group. The selected studies included a variety of teaching strategies such as simulation or role play, clinical experience, case study, and TOSCE training. The importance of an interprofessional approach to palliative/EOL care has been highlighted, and our review suggests that combined IPE and palliative/EOL interventions can potentially impact palliative/EOL patient outcomes. More studies are needed to clarify the effectiveness of interprofessional palliative/EOL educational interventions including facilitators, learning outcomes, variable methods or teaching strategy, and the level of students.
