“…The findings described here are all the more striking for having emerged from interviews with a small number of providers caring for the same group of patients at a single medical center. Themes related to shared vision, role delineation, and collaboration around ACP also resonate with published work in other settings and populations, supporting the broader relevance of our findings (18,32,(49)(50)(51)(52)(53)(54)(55)(56). Nevertheless, our study does not provide information on how ACP for patients with advanced kidney disease is approached at other centers within or outside the VA.…”

In addition, insufficient knowledge exists among clinicians regarding advance directives and end-of-life or hospice care, and most felt inadequately trained to deliver news, such as a cancer diagnosis or prognosis and recommending end-of-life care options (Badzek et al, 2006;Bradley et al, 2002;Cramer, McCorkle, Cherlin, JohnsonHurzeler, & Bradley, 2003;Duke & Thompson, 2007;Feeg & Elebiary, 2005;Jezewski, Brown, et al, 2005;Jezewski, Meeker, & Robillard, 2005;Lipson, Hausman, Higgins, & Burant, 2004;Morrison, Morrison, & Glickman, 1994;Scherer, Jezewski, Graves, Wu, & Bu, 2006).…”
