Essentials of Palliative Care Chaplaincy Certificate

Essentials of Palliative Care Chaplaincy

As a chaplain, religious leader, or health care professional, you help to weave a tapestry of meaning out of the frayed strands of loss, illness and change. While holding hearts steady in an environment beset with complex treatment choices, limited time, and increasing regulatory and financial pressures, employ skill to support peers and colleagues.

The 8-week Essentials of Palliative Care Chaplaincy certifies your work in activities designed to enhance learning through question/answer sessions, interactive case studies, engaged small group cohort sharing, journaling exercises, opportunities for students to apply knowledge in virtual palliative care contexts, and the ability to interact with the other participants and the instructor in an online community.

“This type of training being provided by the Institute equips you for what we call follow-up visits or ongoing care and it also helps you utilize spiritual assessment tools that will help you really understand what this family needs at this particular time.”

Carlos R. Bell, Past President ACPE
