description Approximately 500,000 children in the United States suffer from life-limiting illnesses each year, many of whom are hospice eligible each year.

A cross-sectional survey was developed to assess hospice nurse experience/comfort across the domains of symptom management, end-of-life care, goals of care, family-centered care, and bereavement. The survey was pilot tested and distributed to hospice nurses across a tristate region. A total of 551 respondents across 71 hospices completed surveys. The majority of nurses reported no training in pediatric palliative or hospice care (89.8%), with approximately half reporting
