BackgroundMany nursing students lack comprehension of palliative care, which affects their readiness to care for individuals at the end of life. Implementing a focused educational strategy can improve their understanding, emotions, behavior, and attitudes, leading to exceptional care. AimTo evaluate the Impact of a Palliative Education Program on Nursing Students' Efficiency in Caring for Dying Patients. MethodsA quasi-experimental design involved 216 nursing students from Prince Sattam Bin Abdulaziz University, Saudi Arabia. Data collection included demographic details and questionnaires: Palliative Care Quiz, Frommelt Attitudes, and Death Attitude Profile—Revised. ResultsMore than half (51.9 %) of the participants were below 20 years old, with an average age of 22.8 ± 13.5 years. The majority were female (51.4 %), and 86.6 % had not received palliative care education. Post-program implementation, a significant improvement was observed in total mean scores of knowledge (62.46 ± 4.51), Frommelt Attitudes (240.16 ± 8.9), and Death Attitude Profile-Revised (4.51 ± 42.46). ConclusionThe study validates the efficacy of the Palliative Education Program, demonstrating a notable enhancement in nursing students' knowledge, attitudes, and preparedness to care for dying patients. These findings substantiate the beneficial influence of targeted educational approaches in augmenting students' proficiency in palliative care. RecommendationsIncorporate similar Palliative Education Programs widely to better equip nursing students for providing compassionate end-of-life care.
