Article specifically outlining education of RNs on EOL care

Good morning everyone-  I have reviewed this article and while it is very lengthy, part 6 relates specifically to the lack of content in nursing education addressing end of life care.  The remainder of the article discusses history of EOL care and common signs/symptoms and interventions to address them.

My question to you all is whether or not you believe EOL care is adequately covered in nursing education?  Did your feelings change as a result of reading this article?  What suggestions would you make with respect to the amount of EOL content?
