UCAM Universidad offers a permanent training master in palliative care: patient and family care. The program focuses on clinical, ethical, and human care for people with advanced disease, with attention to the person and their family environment. You learn to conduct comprehensive assessments, interpret scales in advanced phases, and adapt care to each situation.
Teaching is delivered in Spanish in a blended format (semipresencial). The program develops skills for symptom management and clinical care up to the last moments of life. It also trains communication for difficult conversations with patients, families, and care teams, and it covers emotional, social, and spiritual support to provide respectful and dignified, person-centred care.
The program is for people who want to specialize in palliative care practice, value clinical ethics and communication, and care about professional pathways. It leads to opportunities in specialized hospital units, home care teams, socio-medical resources, and coordination and care management, with options for applied teaching and research-oriented projects.
