Board Certified Chaplain

Abstract: Exploring the role of the chaplain in the hospital setting, this talk will examine the integration of spiritual care into the delivery of healthcare in an institutional setting and answer the basic, but often misunderstood question, “What does a chaplain really do?” It will also explain the training and educational requirements of chaplains and how health care providers can better utilize their services.
Continuing medical education credit will be available.
The Center’s Healthcare and Religion Lecture Series is co-sponsored by the Palliative and Supportive Institute, the Department of Religious Studies, and the Jewish Studies Program
