CONTEXT: More health systems are establishing outpatient palliative care (PC) programs, increasing demand for ambulatory PC clinicians. However, existing outpatient training during hospice and palliative medicine (HPM) fellowship remains limited and suboptimal. Little is known about the outpatient-specific knowledge and skills PC trainees should acquire for competent outpatient practice.
OBJECTIVES: To identify and prioritize outpatient-focused educational topics for HPM fellows and clinicians new to ambulatory practice.
METHODS: A cross-sectional survey of United States (U.S.) outpatient PC clinicians (physicians, advanced practice practitioners [APPs]). Using a list of 51 educational topics, respondents selected a maximum of 20 topics they would prioritize as essential to prepare learners for outpatient practice.
RESULTS: Of 247 clinicians, 136 (55%) responded, including 115 physicians and 21 APPs from all U.S. regions. Seven of 51 topics were prioritized by more than two-thirds of respondents (n = 92-119, 68%-86%). Four focused on outpatient application of core PC skills (pain management [n = 113, 83%], nonpain symptom management [n = 117, 86%], depression/anxiety [n = 107, 79%], goals of care [n = 92, 68%]). The remaining three covered discrete topics related to pain and opioid management, including best practices for caring for patients with comorbid pain and substance use disorder (n = 104, 76%).
CONCLUSION: This national survey identified foundational outpatient-focused educational topics for HPM learners and suggests that outpatient curricula prioritize deliberate education on the unique application of core PC skills in outpatient settings. This prioritized list provides education leaders a roadmap to enhance existing curricula and informs the development of outpatient educational resources that can be shared across institutions.
