Providing Chaplaincy to Oncology Patients & Their Families – NACC 2023 Webinar series

January 27, 2023 by Phil Paradowski

Providing Chaplaincy to Oncology Patients & Their Families

Presented by Rev. Tarra Larcena Taylor MDiv BCC

February 16, 2023~ 12pm – 1:30pm Central Time

Overview and Objectives
Many improvements have been made in the Oncology/Hematology field. The word ‘cancer’ still remains a frightening and daunting word and the diagnosis carries a lot of implications for the person as well as their family/caregivers. The pattern of their life is not necessarily linear; there are many ups and downs. There is a process going on inside the person that they cannot control. And for them, cancer becomes a lifelong journey- from the time of diagnosis. Religious coping can be helpful along their journey.

As a result of this webinar, participants will:

1. Be provided an overview of Cancer stages and treatment
2. Discuss spiritual needs of cancer patients and some of the barriers to meeting those needs
3. Explore ways chaplains support cancer patients

NACC Certification Competencies Addressed in this Webinar
PPS2, PPS3, PPS4. PPS6
