한의과대학에서 죽음학 교육 필요성에 대한 인식조사 및 교과목 설계

Abstract

This article reports on a survey that was conducted on students and professors at a college of Korean medicine on attitudes toward death and the need for death education. Survey results show a high demand among participants for death education, including education about facing death in clinical practice as a medical professional. In light of the results of this survey, we propose a semester-long death education course and hope that this recommendation will be helpful for implementing and developing death education at medical schools of Korean medicine.
