Integrating Ethics Education and Training Into Palliative Medicine Fellowships: A Response to Vig and Merel.

In a recent American Journal of Hospice and Palliative Medicine article entitled "Ethics Education During Palliative Medicine Fellowship," Dr Elizabeth Vig and Dr Susan Merel detail the ethics curriculum of the University of Washington School of Medicine's Palliative Medicine Fellowship, including their efforts in the past several years to increase and bolster the fellowship's ethics curriculum. This letter builds upon this topic and discusses some other strategies and methods for ethics education and training that fellowship programs may consider adopting to bolster their ethics curriculum.
