290. The Role of Nurses in the Spiritual Care Team with Reverend Christine

The Ashley O Show: Nursing Beyond the Bedside

Today we are digging into belief, grief, loss, and how to navigate the heavier parts of life as a healthcare professional. Reverend Christine is an experienced hospital chaplain, and joins us to discuss her role as a chaplain, some of the misconceptions around when to use this resource, how nurses can feel empowered in their own role as spiritual care generalists, and how to create a boundary between the weight of our work and our lives at home.
Rev. Christine Davies runs the hospital chaplaincy department at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital. She is an ordained Presbyterian Minister, a Certified Educator with the Association of Clinical Pastoral Education, a Seminary Professor and a trained Spiritual Director. Christine earned her Master of Divinity degree from Princeton Theological Seminary and a Master of Social Work degree from Rutgers University.
