This course, When Care is Tough: Supporting the Interdisciplinary Team, focuses on why chaplains and spiritual care providers should intentionally emphasize care for staff. We will look at how chaplains and spiritual care providers can create a calming and peaceful presence amidst what is often a chaotic and intense clinical environment. We will also look at some ways chaplains and spiritual care providers can seek to provide rituals that will be meaningful to staff who are of different religions, and none. We will also then be looking at the need for chaplains and spiritual care providers to provide staff care. Topics such as compassion fatigue, burnout, vicarious trauma, and moral injury will all be defined and discussed as it relates to employees working in healthcare. We will also then look at some specific programs and interventions chaplains and spiritual care providers can use when working with staff - some tools in the chaplain and spiritual care provider’s belt. Finally, we will learn about other institutional resources available to staff, and how chaplains and spiritual care providers can encourage their use.
