In November 2023, the RRIPM Project Team conducted a survey that was advertised on various platforms and was open for 20 days.

A sincere thank you to all the palliative medicine trainees who contributed their time and effort to completing the survey. Their candid responses have provided a deeper understanding of the complexities and nuances that shape the training journey, and have revealed insights into the rewards, barriers, preferences, and aspirations that influence the choices of palliative medicine professionals.

The results of the Trainee Survey can be read HERE.

The survey’s more detailed findings have been included in the Scoping Review (see above) that has been prepared for wider examination and to fuel discussions aimed at reshaping the rural palliative medicine training landscape.
