Care for the dying is an important task for physicians. The ways in which this problem is dealt with during the medical training and the expectations of the people concerned were examined in 1989 and in 1994 by means of a questionnaire developed for this purpose. Altogether 565 junior doctors and medical students in Germany were asked. The number of people who declared that this topic was dealt with during their studies increased from 32.7% to 51%. The number of junior doctors and medical students who stated that they felt sufficiently prepared for care for the dying was low both in 1889 with 4.3% and in 1994 with 12.7%. Dealing with this problem seemed necessary to more than 97% of the people asked on both occasions. Results regarding the expectations and ideas of how and when this topic should be dealt with are also shown. Our results show that while there is a deficit in dealing with the topic "care for the dying" during medical training, there is a considerable interest in this subject among junior doctors and medical students.
