Abstract
Midwest Bioethics Center believes that encouraging palliative care training in the school milieu is one of the keys to achieving lasting improvement in end-of-life care. Therefore, a cooperative venture to increase palliative care education in medical schools was among the first strategies envisioned in the Center's PATHWAYS initiative. Its implementation, no less than its goal, requires both time and effort.
