“…The possible reason for this might be that only a few nurses have been trained on PC. This is also evident in other studies including those by Rolandson et al (2008), Proctor et al (2000), Arber (2001), Raudonis et al (2002), Knapp (2009), Brazil et al (2012), and Carroll et al (2005. For example, Rolandson et al (2008) found that the mean score for Registered Nurses was 11.7…”

“…The mean score on PCQN in the pre-test of this study was somewhat lower than in other studies. A study of 164 geriatric nurses in the USA reported a mean score of 12.3 on the PCQN (Raudonis, Kyba, & Kinsey, 2002), and a study of 72 community nurses in the UK reported a mean score on PCQN of 12.5 (Hughes, Parker, Payne, Ingleton, & Noble, 2006). Approximately 70% of participants in this study had some palliative care education and about 30% of them had taken the ELNEC-Core course in the previous year.…”

Background: Few nurses are trained in palliative care for long-term care in Korea. The End-of-Life Nursing Education Consortium (ELNEC)-Geriatric training program improves nurses' ability to promote palliative care for the elderly. Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate nurses' satisfaction and knowledge following the attendance at the ELNEC-Geriatric curriculum on nurses' knowledge of palliative care. Methods: Nine ELNECGeriatric modules were presented to 203 interdisciplinary professionals on July 1 and 3, 2010, in Seoul, South Korea. The Palliative care quiz for nursing (PCQN) was used to evaluate nurses' knowledge. Of all the participants, 128 nurses were completed the questionnaire. Of these nurses, 45.2% were staff nurses and 73.4% were hospital nurses. Results: Approximately eight nine percent of the nurses reported previous experience in caring for dying patients and attending various hospice palliative care training programs. Overall program satisfaction of the participants was 4.03 on a 5-point scale, and their mean of the total PCQN score was 12.75 out of 20 after participating in ELNEC-Geriatric course, which was a significant improvement (p=.022) from the pretest. Conclusion:The results of this study demonstrate that ELNEC-Geriatric curriculum was successfully implemented and significantly contributed to increasing the nurses' knowledge for palliative care in long-term care in Korea.

“…in several studies (Ford and McInerney, 2011;Pitman, 2013;Ronaldson et al, 2008), all of which were conducted in Australia and has also been used internationally with nurses (Hughes et al, 2006;Proctor et al, 2000;Raudonis et al, 2002). In studies where the PCQN has been used, results between the participant groups have correlated with levels of education and palliative care experience (Proctor et al, 2000;Ronaldson et al, 2008).…”
