Nine Spiritual Principles for Patient Experience
David Carl, Executive Director of Pastoral Care and Education, Carolinas HealthCare System
To meet and inspire others through Patient Experience we need to be engaged and inspired from within. Real-world applications of Nine Spiritual Principles will remind attendees of the call and passion for why they got into the healing field in the first place. This focus will in turn have a positive influence on being more fully present with those for whom we care. Through story telling, illustrations, and experiential engagement with the audience, those in attendance will remember how essential it is to view self and others as multi-sensory beings. All present will be asked to recall that they are composed of – Mind-Body-Spirit interfaces – and so are our patients, families, and colleagues we engage.
