The Spiritual and Religious Makeup of the Hospice Caregiver - Online Inservice

In studying the fabric of knowledge that transcends science, the course neither labels one religion or practice as good or bad nor does it deny any claims of spiritual experiences or awakenings. The primary objective of this course is to lay credence to the psychological and cultural factors on spiritual and religious development and to understand its strengths and limitations as it interacts with the prioritizing value hospice takes in serving a religiously diverse community.
