“…Focus on the specialization and lack of effective inter professional communication has led to ignoring human integrity and his extensive needs, which in turn, hinders accurate and timely diagnosis of patients' needs. The following maltreatment leads to more complicated conditions, dispersed, sectional and temporary care, widespread medical errors, contradictory and parallel treatments, as well as health service delivery according to specialties rather than client-based services with regard to their actual needs (33).…”

Background and Objectives: Competency-based medical education focuses on empowering the medical students with capabilities required to act effectively in their field work, in accordance with the needs and demands of the service sector. The remarkable rise in the interconnection between medicine and religious issues in recent years has intensified the need to addressing religious competencies in medical education. However, there is little evidence of such a tendency in the Iranian medical universities. We investigated the barriers and challenges faced by medical education system for the development of religious competencies.Methods: This qualitative study was carried out by conventional content analysis method. The participants were 18 faculty members and instructors from 7 Iranian medical universities, selected through purposeful sampling. The experts' opinions were obtained through deep semi-structured interviews and analyzed by MaxQDA (version 10). Results:The results revealed the challenges of developing religious competencies in five main categories including conceptual challenges (lack of clarified concept of religious competencies, and the predominance of secular approach), motivational challenges (lack of intrinsic/ extrinsic motivation), methodological challenges (lack of appropriate teaching/ learning methodology and inadequacy of assessment mechanisms), institutional challenges (the absence of supportive and facilitating organizational culture, lack of necessary infrastructures, discordant content and resources, and improper policies), and finally contextual challenges (sociocultural conflicts and macro social structures). Conclusion:Religious competencies development in Iranian medical education is in need of close attention to multiple factors affecting it, some of which are outlined in this article. It seems that a multifaceted look is needed for a comprehensive plan in this regard.

Background: Terminally illnesses such as cancer, AIDS, dementia, and advanced heart disease will require special supportive and palliative care, although a few numbers of these patients are provided with these services.Objective: The present study was conducted aiming to perform a comparative study of supportive-palliative care provision in selected countries.Methods: This research was a descriptive-comparative study that its research population was the frameworks of palliative and supportive care provision in Egypt, Turkey, America, Australia, Canada, the Netherlands, and China. These frameworks were compared across 6 dimensions of service receivers, financing, providers, service provider centers, type of services provided and training. Data collection tool has included checklist and information sources, documents, evidence, articles, books and journals collected through the internet and organizations related to the health information of selected countries and by library search. Data was investigated and analyzed using data collection tool and checklists.Findings: The findings showed that the developed countries having decentralized trusteeship structure had a more favorable status in palliative and supportive care provision. The type of services provided was a combination of mental, psychological, social, spiritual, financial, and physical and communication services. Provider centers included hospital, the elderly, and cancer, and charity centers.Conclusion: Regarding the investigation and recognition of the status of supportive-palliative care provision, it was observed that the provision of these services was a concern of the selected countries, but they did not have a defined model or pattern to provide these services. Therefore, it is suggested that each country takes a step to redesign and define frameworks and structures in the evolution of supportive-palliative cares in accordance with the particular conditions, indigenous culture, religion and other effective cases of that country and pays special attention to the role and position of supportive-palliative cares.
