Are there any journals/magazines specifically geared towards Hospice/Pallative nursing? If so would you give me a name and how to get a subscription to it?
Thanks in advance.:)

Yes! If you join the Hospice and Palliative Nurses Association, you will receive the bimonthly Journal of Hospice and Palliative Nursing as one of the benefits of membership.

http://www.hpna.org/membership_benefits.asp

You may also subscribe without being a member but a subscription costs $59.00 and the membership is $70 and entitles you to much reduced fees for conferences and for study materials.

A sampling of articles can be viewed free at medscape but you will need to register to access the link. (If you're not already registered there its a great site that has free CE's too!)

This is more a textbook than a periodical. But I think it's well done and a good source of info.
