I will be speaking at Caring for the Human Spirit Conference, sponsored by HealthCare Chaplaincy Network, in San Diego on Monday, April 11th from 1:30 to 3:30 pm. My co-researchers Dr. Laura Dunn and Chaplain Allison Kestenbaum, who also studied Spiritual AIM with advanced stage cancer patients in palliative care, will be co-presenting. Participants will be able to:
1. Understand Spiritual AIM, which includes outcomes’ and utilize the new manual to learn this model in a fresh way
2. Understand the process of creating a manual to teach Spiritual AIM
3. Develop an awareness of previous qualitative and quantitative research findings from a mixed-methods study of Spiritual AIM and current/future research, including manualizing the model and teaching it to professional chaplains
4. Learn about next steps in research
