One university and two nonuniversity sites participated. The analysis was descriptive.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Five residents and eight supervisors of five training rotations (July\u2013October 2023) responded. Overall, curriculum quality and feasibility (content and time) received positive ratings across all groups, with high satisfaction concerning organization, educational design, learning support, climate, experience, and facilities. Nonuniversity sites were generally rated more positively than university sites. Qualitative feedback paralleled these findings, highlighting the curriculum's relevance and fit with learners' needs and suggesting potential simplifications and more personalized planning.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Establishing short and standard duration curricula for a PC program is viable and well received by nonspecialist trainees. Future implementation should concentrate on personalized learning objectives and streamlining the content and structure of the competencies. Cooperation within various training settings (university and regional hospitals) as well as on an international level (e.g., Canada\u2013Switzerland) may further improve the quality of the proposed training formats.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1089\/pmr.2024.0004","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,15]],"date-time":"2024-04-15T15:24:22Z","timestamp":1713194662000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Basic Training in Palliative Medicine for Internal Medicine Residents: Pilot Testing of a Canadian Model in Switzerland"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"5","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0109-8084","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Andreas Samuel","family":"Ebneter","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University Center for Palliative Care, University Hospital, Inselspital Bern, Switzerland."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6416-0909","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ebru","family":"Kaya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Palliative Medicine, University of Toronto and University Health Network, Toronto, Ontario, Canada."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Petra","family":"Mair","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Palliative Care Unit, Internal Medicine Clinic, Spital Thun, Thun, Switzerland."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Barbara","family":"Affollter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Palliative Care Unit, Internal Medicine Clinic, Spital Emmental, Burgdorf, Switzerland."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Steffen","family":"Eychmueller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Center for Palliative Care, University Hospital, Inselspital Bern, Switzerland."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_6_2_2","unstructured":"BAG.
