Abstract

The End of Life Care Strategy published by the Department of Health in 2008, describes the role healthcare and non-healthcare professionals, including pharmacists, can play in the delivery of care to people at the end of life. The minimum level of skills and knowledge described for the effective provision of healthcare within various sectors highlights the need for the highest level of communication skills and collaborative working within healthcare teams1. Pharmacy education has responded to develop curricula that incorporate experience-based learning that involves ‘participation in practice’ evolving along a spectrum from passive observation to performance. This study reports students’ qualitative evaluation of a placement in practice with respect to outcomes achieved from the experience.
