Description

Carina Lundh Hagelin and co-authors map the online courses that teach palliative care in Sweden, and how they are run. Their 2024 study starts from a rising need: more people live with several slow diseases at once, and staff must learn to ease the last phase of life. Web courses promise scale, but their shape and worth were uncharted.

The team hunted courses on the web and through care groups, took them, and surveyed the providers. Nine courses from five providers turned up, and they had taught over 30,000 health workers, mostly nurses and assistant nurses. Far fewer finished than enrolled. Few courses asked the learners themselves how the teaching landed, a gap the authors flag.
