Care Conferences:
A Research Project

Preconference Workshop P1
Workshop Level: Intermediate

Rev. Mr. Jack R. Conrad, MBA, MAR, BCC
Director of Spiritual Care
LeBonheur Children’s Hospital
Germantown, TN

Formation of a research project is challenging and difficult, especially if you have not been involved with research before. This workshop will take the participants through the process of creation of a real research project. The workshop will also discuss how Care Conferences can impact Patient and Family Experience Scores.

As a result of this workshop, participants will:

  1. Share the construction of a Research Project on changing the way Care Conferences are conducted and the experience and requirements of forming a research project in Chaplaincy.
  2. Discuss the Care Conference and its impact on Patient and Family Experience Scores.
  3. Help Chaplains understand the formation and execution of Chaplaincy based research.
