Program Overview
Amidst the changing landscape of chaplaincy, chaplains must challenge ourselves to claim our skills and strengths, and learn to become advocates for ourselves, our ministry, and our profession. One way we can do this is to help show how what we do impacts patient satisfaction.
Program Objectives
1. Become the recognized experts in addressing emotional and spiritual needs.
2. Be able to show how what we do impacts core measures.
3. Learn some techniques to raise patient satisfaction scores.
