مستخلص: At the University of California, Irvine Medical Center, an end-of-life curriculum was implemented in 2000 for an internal medicine residency utilizing a longitudinal approach that allowed residents to follow patients through their entire hospice experience. An elective home hospice rotation was developed for which third-year residents served as primary care physicians for patients at the end of life over a one-year period. Residents were supervised by faculty who were hospice medical directors. They also learned through case vignettes, quarterly meetings, textbook reading, and personal projects. From July 2000 to June 2002, residents demonstrated positive attitudes towards hospice care and recommended the rotation highly (mean 8.86 on a scale of 1-10). The rotation grew in popularity from six initial residents to ten residents the next year, and has since become a mandatory rotation for all senior residents. A 360-degree evaluation uniformly indicated positive resident performance from the hospice team (mean scores 7.56-8.69 on a 1-9 scale), family (mean scores 9.3-9.7 on a 1-10 scale) and faculty (mean scores 7.29-7.72 on a 1-9 scale). Residents were also pleased with the level of teaching (mean 8.86 on a scale of 1-10) and felt that the patient care load was "just right." Their knowledge improved by 8% (p =.0175). In conclusion, a longitudinal hospice rotation was implemented that fulfilled curricular goals without undue burden on the residents or residency program.
