Summary:To explore the effect of storytelling on hospice care learning in the interest group. Storytelling was used among 7 master of science in nursing (MSN) students in the hospice care interest group. The effect of storytelling was evaluated by the combination of students' reflect diary and the evaluation form. Five themes were extracted from diary including: relieving the suffering of the patients, understanding and respecting patients' choice, communicating, team working, and family supporting. Among 5 items of the evaluation form, there were 4 items which were scored as either agree or strongly agree. Students reflected that the storytelling helped them recognize the importance of relieving the suffering, respecting and understanding, communicating, team working, and family supporting in the hospice care.
