Abstract	Americans diagnosed with serious illnesses tend to have significantly poorer quality of life due to limited access to reliable palliative and end-of-life care. Individuals living with these conditions continue to experience health care that does not meet their needs, experience undue suffering, require increased care visits, and have limited or undertreated symptoms, as well as an enhanced burden on family members and clinician burnout (Center to Advance Palliative Care, 2019). Nurses provide care to individuals with serious conditions in all care settings, but are lacking some of the necessary skills, knowledge, and comfort levels required to meet the overwhelming and continuously growing client needs. This study addresses the issue that new graduating nurses are coming to the practice setting without the basic knowledge and skills required to provide effective and proficient end-of-life (EOL) palliative care (PC) for patients. To address this problem, this study aims is to identify and add to the current research about faculty's perceived barriers to preparing and meeting the identified needs students have in caring for dying patients and their family members. To gather data for the qualitative descriptive approach, didactical and clinical educators will be interviewed through a semi-structured format to explore the genuine understanding of instructors' experiences and limitations that hinder infusing PC and EOL care into their academic environment. The information gained through this study will aid in promoting strategies which will enable educators to adequately prepare new nurses to effectively care for dying patients within any practice setting, as well as generate further research.
