Course offering: Essentials of Palliative Care Chaplaincy

From our partners at the CSU Shiley Institute for Palliative Care:

Spiritual care skills needed now

 

Chaplains and other spiritual care providers play an integral role in easing suffering, building resiliency, and offering psychosocial support to people experiencing the crisis of a serious or life-limiting illness.

That work is critically important, now more than ever.

Essentials of Palliative Care Chaplaincy is an online instructor-led course that prepares spiritual care providers to better support patients, families, and clinicians who may be struggling in this unprecedented time. Whether you are working in palliative care, the Emergency Department, ICU, home hospice, or any other setting, you will substantially increase your skills in addressing:

  • Spiritual and existential questions
  • Ethical decisions
  • Difficult treatment options
  • Meaning making
  • Moral distress and resiliency

Offered by the California State University Shiley Institute for Palliative care, this course is presented in a personal, convenient, and interactive format. The next cohort begins April 22.
