Palliative medicine is an emerging worldwide discipline. This article describes efforts at the Medical College of Wisconsin to develop programs to enhance palliative care education and clinical care. New courses, seminars, and clinical programs have been developed with assistance from various medical school departments and affiliated hospitals. Education and clinical care activities since 1990 have included a new 6-week course for 2nd-year medical students; a hospice volunteer experience for preclinical students; clinical electives for 3rd- and 4th-year medical students; a clinical palliative care consultation service; a palliative care seminar series designed for housestaff; a nurse preceptorship program; and an allied health observership program. Palliative care activities include both the academic medical center and community health agencies. The MCW has integrated palliative care into its academic environment so that trainees at all education levels now have opportunities for didactic and clinical palliative care education.
