BH 518 “Spirituality in Health Care” a multidisciplinary course
Mondays, 6-7:50pm
2 credits
Greetings, I wanted to let you all know of an interesting ethics elective that will be offered spring quarter, 2014—“Spirituality in Health Care” BH-518– conjoint with Fam Med 547. This two hour elective explores how patients use religious beliefs and practices in coping with serious illness and the prospect of dying. It also encourages participants to reflect on how belief systems (pro or con) held by health care professionals may affect patient care. It offers a brief exploration of some of today’s world religions and how health care professionals can work in partnership with chaplains. Class will meet on Monday evenings, 6-7:50pm, room T-473. To enroll, or for inquiries, send your name and student number to: bhadds@uw.edu best wishes,
Dr. Tom McCormick
Dept. Bioethics and Humanities
Dr. Stephen King, Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, adjunct Bioethics & Humanities
