The Community Alliance for Compassionate Care at the End of Life (The Alliance) presents the EPEC (Educating Physicians/Providers on End of Life Care) program for four years. The need expressed in evaluation forms from the EPEC programs showed that the audience and the palliative care concepts were not reaching the front line health care worker, the nurse assistant. It was apparent that a program be developed to reach the nurse assistant and other disciplines left out by EPEC with similar concepts of end-of-life and palliative care. We recognize palliative care is patient-centered care delivered by a full health care team. The nurse assistant is the frontline worker of a palliative care program.
