More Articles Published from UCSF Spiritual Care Research

Posted on May 5, 2015 by Peter Clark in News

In a prior blog post, we discussed UCSF’s research project on the Spiritual Assessment and Intervention Model (AIM) and its application to outpatient palliative care settings for patients with advanced cancer, which was funded by a grant from the HealthCare Chaplaincy Network and the John Templeton Foundation.

We are very pleased to announce that this project has resulted in two recently published articles by members of the research team.  Here are links to all three of the articles that have been published thus far:

“Taking your place at the table”: an autoethnographic study of chaplains’ participation on an interdisciplinary research team

Seven Steps to Self-Care

Tip #4: If you’re worried, bring yourself back to the present. When we feel anxious, we’re preoccupied with the future. A good way to release anxiety is to stand still, move your fingers and toes, and pay attention to those sensations. While you do this action, it can help to think about someone you care about or who cares about you.
