WEBINAR DETAILS
It is vitally important for chaplains, social workers, and bereavement teams to have the ability to “be present.” When we are with people who are ill and their loved ones, it is even more important to teach patients and families to be present for one another. Presence, authenticity, vulnerability, and openness will be discussed in this presentation. Pathways will be provided to help understand which part of these are for us to utilize in our work and how/when to share these critical approaches with patients and families.
