This chapter delves into interdisciplinary education and training in pediatric palliative care, both its basis in the underlying principles of adult education, updates in interdisciplinary education, and its creative initiatives specific to the field. The chapter explores principles of adult education, principles of interdisciplinary education as a framework for pediatric palliative care, the unique pedagogy of pediatric palliative care, creative models of training, parents and families as teachers, and the benefits and challenges of interdisciplinary pediatric palliative education. In order to optimally tailor the teaching approach, the following factors must be considered: the background, perspective, and experience of the intended audience; the skills they bring; and the most likely and/or most significant gaps in their knowledge. |
