Brazil is experiencing a demographic transition, with changes in dietary and behavioral patterns, increasing the incidence of non-communicable chronic diseases. In view of this, there is a breakdown of the family group as the disease progresses and even the patient's death. In this context, curative medicine emerges, with Palliative Care, which aims to alleviate the suffering of the patient and the family, through physical, psychological, social and spiritual health care, easing the death process.

A large part of the students had knowledge about the subject, either in relation to the concepts that support palliative care (77.3%), or about the therapy used (85.69%), as well as who this care is intended for (79, 02%).
