Proposed Collection: Pediatric Palliative Care Campaign Pilot
Survey-0925-New-National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), National
Institutes of Health (NIH).
Need and Use of Information Collection: NINR developed a Pediatric
Palliative Care Campaign to address the communications challenges faced
by health care providers who recommend and provide palliative care to
pediatric populations. NINR is launching this effort to increase the
use of palliative care for children living with serious illness or
life-limiting conditions. The Pediatric Palliative Care Campaign Pilot
Survey will assess the information and materials being disseminated as
part of the Pediatric Palliative Care Campaign pilot. Survey findings
will help (1) determine if the pilot campaign is effective, relevant,
and useful to health care providers who recommend and provide
palliative care to pediatric populations; (2) to better understand
current perceptions, challenges, and information needs of health care
providers when it comes to discussing pediatric palliative care so that
information and materials can be refined; and (3) examine how effective
the campaign pilot materials are in starting and continuing a pediatric
palliative care conversation and addressing the communications needs of
health care providers around this topic.
This assessment will deliver strategic and actionable guidance for
refining the campaign materials so that they can be used by a wider
audience of health care providers. OMB approval is requested for 3
years. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The
total estimated annualized burden hours are 26.
