Abstract:

Objective To explore the effects of a hospice care course based on Fink integration model for students majored in geriatric nursing in a higher vocational college. Methods Fink model was used to design the hospice care course for students in a higher vocational college. The course was provided to 138 students from March to April 2021. The final theoretical scores,skill scores,self-made questionnaires and reflection diaries submitted by students were used to evaluate the effects of the course. Results The final theoretical score of the students was（82.94±9.39）. The skill score was（90.45±4.32）. The survey at the end of the course showed that 95.7% of the students agreed they had improved the theoretical level of hospice care,92.8% of the students thought they had made themselves cherish life,and 97.1% of the students thought they had improved their communication skills. One year after the course,76.2% to 91.3% students still agreed with the learning objectives had been achieved. The results of reflection diary analysis showed that the hospice care course made students more willing to pay attention to the development of hospice and improve their ability of interpersonal communication and learning. Conclusion The hospice care course designed by using Fink integration model can improve students’ hospice care cognitive level and interpersonal communication ability,promote students’ thinking about life and death,enhance students’ willingness to engage in hospice care work,and create “meaningful learning experience” with short-term and long-term impacts for students.
