Trainee district nurses' understanding and perceptions of the palliative care key worker role: a qualitative study.
Background: The district nurse is identified as a keyworker in community based palliative care. However, a dearth of research exists on trainees' views and understanding of adopting the role upon qualification.
Aims: The aim of this study was to explore the understanding and perceptions of district nurse trainees in relation to the palliative care key worker role.
Methods: Data was gathered via online semi-structured interviews (n=10) and the results were analysed using a thematic model.
Findings: The four evolving themes included: understanding of the palliative care key worker role scope and function; the level of preparation for the role; a juggling act and embedding the role in practice.
Conclusion: The themes highlighted various drivers and barriers that reflect a degree of incongruence with policy and practice. Recommendations to standardise the palliative care key worker role, underpinned by formal preparation and clearly defined responsibilities may enhance future development and implementation of the role.
