Palliative Care Training for Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry Fellows: A National Survey Project.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Provision of palliative care is part of the standard of care for patients with serious, life-limiting medical illnesses. Patients in the palliative care setting have high rates of psychiatric co-morbidity. However, integration of mental health care into palliative care remains a significant gap. With appropriate training, consultation-liaison (C-L) psychiatrists are well-positioned to improve integration of mental health into palliative care. PURPOSE:To understand current palliative care training practices for C-L psychiatry fellows in the United States. METHOD:We invited all U.S. C-L psychiatry fellowship program directors to participate in a 17-item online structured survey aimed at understanding palliative care training in their fellowship programs. RESULTS:37/61 (61%) of C-L psychiatry fellowship program directors responded to the survey. Eighty-six percent of programs provide some palliative care didactics, but the topics covered vary widely. Programs are closely split between offering a required, elective, or no clinical palliative care experiences. Only about half (45%) of programs identify formal opportunities for interaction between palliative care and C-L psychiatry fellows. Program directors identified topics such as goals-of-care discussions, systems issues in end-of-life care, and pain management as important for fellows to learn. Barriers to teaching these topics included time, lack of teaching faculty, and disciplinary siloes. CONCLUSIONS:Although C-L psychiatry fellowship program directors identify a number of key teaching topics in palliative care for C-L psychiatry fellows, there are wide discrepancies in the depth and content of existing palliative care didactic and clinical experiences in C-L psychiatry fellowships.
