Grant Overview
Oregon's palliative care landscape is characterized by significant disparities in access to care, particularly in rural areas. The state's rural counties, such as Harney and Lake, experience some of the most severe shortages in palliative care services, with fewer than 20 palliative care physicians per 100,000 residents. This program aims to expand palliative care training for nursing students focusing on rural populations. By partnering with hospice and palliative care organizations, students will learn to provide compassionate end-of-life care, addressing a vital need in communities with limited access to specialized services. ## Target Outcomes in Oregon The Expanding Palliative Care Education initiative aims to improve palliative care outcomes in Oregon's rural areas. Specifically, the program seeks to increase the number of nursing students trained in palliative care and to improve the quality of care provided to rural residents. ## Why Palliative Care Matters in Oregon Oregon's aging population and significant rural-urban disparities in healthcare access make palliative care a critical need. The state's rural areas face significant challenges in accessing palliative care services, with many counties experiencing shortages in palliative care workforce. Unlike Washington, Oregon's application requires specific demonstration of rural palliative care needs. ## Implementation in Oregon Successful applicants will be required to implement their programs in Oregon's rural areas, working closely with hospice and palliative care organizations. They will be expected to provide regular progress reports and to evaluate the effectiveness of their programs. The state will provide technical assistance and support to ensure that programs are implemented successfully and that they achieve their intended outcomes.
