Abstract
This pilot study evaluated the reach and efficacy of nurse training program to provide palliative care to patients with advanced chronic diseases. A mixed method was used (an one-group pre-post research design and a group interview). To examine the changes in knowledge, attitude and self-efficacy, paired t-test were used with SPSS 21.0. To obtain pivoting information in real settings, a content analysis was conducted in the data obtaining from a group interview. There were significant improvements on knowledge and self-efficacy scores after the program. Additionally, high retention rate and program satisfaction were found in the participants while recruitment strategies, especially nurses working for tertiary hospitals, need to be modified in future research. A full-fledged research is warranted to find effective strategies to implement and disseminate the program for nurses working in diverse settings.
