SELF
STUDY LEARNING MODULE
CEU
Credit: 3.0 contact hours
Approved
for Continuing Chaplaincy Education
As
society is recognizing the fragmentation of care
for the body, mind, spirit, and soul, there is an
increased need for resources that integrate spirituality
as an important dimension of health and healing.
Having trained separately, professionals in the religious,
nursing, medical, social work, and therapeutic fields
are challenged to find a common language in order
to work collaboratively and expand their knowledge
base in order to address the needs of persons.
This learning
module provides an opportunity to explore the issues of
common language from a multidisciplinary perspective by
reflecting on presented material in light of your own experience
and context.
