CPE residency program at Prisma health
0:17
is really one of our most exciting
0:20
programs here we're talking about an
0:22
organization that sees over a million
0:24
patients a year 18 hospitals two Trauma
0:27
Centers two children's hospitals and
0:29
it's a rich clinical environment for CPE
0:32
students we talk about inspiring Health
0:35
serving with compassion and being the
0:37
difference in our residents every day
0:39
get to enter the lives of our patients
0:42
and families the most meaningful times
0:45
of their life the most difficult and
0:47
vulnerable times of their life and one
0:49
of the core elements of our CPE program
0:51
is that we train students to enter the
0:54
lives of people when they need support
0:57
the ability to be present and supportive
1:00
at the darkest times of their lives our
1:02
Residency program encompasses a total
1:05
learning in the sense that we allow the
1:07
space and time for students to work on
1:09
their internal needs as a caregiver at
1:12
the same time that they're working on
1:13
their clinical skills and so the
1:16
students are able to go out and to do
1:18
their work in the clinic and they come
1:20
back and process that work in their
1:22
group setting and then have the
1:23
opportunity to go back out and to
1:25
experiment as they go along to make sure
1:27
that they are continuing to grow both in
1:29
their clinical skills but also in their
1:31
interpersonal skills the key elements of
1:33
our program here at Prisma health and
1:36
CPE lay on the foundation of us
1:39
believing firmly that spiritual care is
1:41
an art form we work to develop the
1:43
artists that are the students practicing
1:46
spiritual care we believe a successful
1:48
CPE program means that they learn
1:50
everything they can about themselves so
1:52
they go on the floors and encounter that
1:54
work we accomplish that here by the
1:56
clinical method of learning so students
1:58
go on the floors and make visits and
2:00
reflect on visits and in the process of
2:02
doing doing so they learn so much about
2:04
themselves about their history their
2:06
celebrations and their lives their ups
2:08
but also their painful moments and
2:10
learning and experiencing all of those
2:12
in their history we believe they're able
2:14
to connect empathetically to the people
2:16
on the floors doing the same work a
2:18
resident experiences first-hand Care at
2:21
the bedside of patients and families
2:24
that are going through multiple crises
2:26
whether it be illness or physical
2:28
ailments mental ailments a resident is
2:31
able to meet with that patient see that
2:33
patient and learn how to understand and
2:37
hear what they're saying a resident
2:39
experiences many things during their
2:42
time you get out of this process what
2:44
you put into it many of our students
2:46
experience a lot of healing themselves
2:48
as they are working on the process of
2:50
how to engage healing with others and so
2:52
we do a lot of work around helping the
2:55
student get to know themselves better
2:56
beow wolf is a member of our
2:59
interdisciplinary team he is part of the
3:01
canine fetch unit he is the first adult
3:04
therapy dog here and he is the
3:07
chaplain's dog he comes alongside me and
3:10
we use him as an intervention to help
3:12
with existential pain and suffering
3:14
residents will often Shadow me and then
3:17
later work with me to learn how to work
3:19
in an interdisciplinary context and then
3:22
some of the unique interventions of
3:23
palliative care chaplains do such as
3:25
guiding family meetings about plans and
3:27
goals of care what drew me to this
3:30
Residency program was as part of the
3:33
interview process I reached out to
3:35
professionals that I knew in other parts
3:38
of the country and said these are the
3:39
folks that are running this program what
3:42
do you know about them and their
3:43
response was that's a really good
3:45
program those are some of the great
3:46
folks in our profession of teaching
3:49
people how to be chaplains you will feel
3:52
supported and like you are getting the
3:55
best out of your residency
3:57
this program helps you to be
4:00
introspective and to observe how you
4:04
show up when you're caring for people
4:06
this program has helped me to learn more
4:09
about authentically who I am and I'm
4:12
glad for that so we're going to staff
4:14
Chapman's here it's been very great
4:16
they've encouraged me to talk to them if
4:18
I have any fears they've been coaching
4:20
me giving me different materials it just
4:22
showed me a lot and it's still showing
4:23
me how to do things and just let me know
4:25
how you're part of the team everybody
4:27
just seems to want to see you succeed
4:30
want to see you reach the goals you said
4:33
you wanted to reach when you got here
4:34
when you really chart your own course in
4:37
this program for becoming a chaplain and
4:39
for what you think a chaplain should be
4:41
and look like and do in a day-to-day
4:42
context it's helped me reach career
4:45
goals looks good on a resume personally
4:47
more important than that it's just
4:48
helped me become a better human being
4:50
one of the biggest things that benefits
4:52
me as well as the patients is we're in
4:54
this together collaboration where you
4:57
are part of a team where there's other
4:59
people in the same boat with you you can
5:01
collaborate with them and the staff as
5:04
well they really come alongside you to
5:06
empower you and to help you to become a
5:09
better chaplain all that to say is that
5:11
I've seen it firsthand making a
5:14
difference in the clinic of a more
5:16
confident as a Chaplain I am owning my
5:18
authority I'm having that collaboration
5:20
to help me see things my blindsides that
5:22
maybe I don't always see to be able to
5:24
help my patient in a deeper way with
5:27
their care and not just the patient but
5:28
family members too I've seen myself grow
5:31
in this experience through a lot of
5:34
self-reflection it gave me the
5:36
opportunity to take a deep dive into
5:38
looking at myself it also has given me
5:41
Insight of how I care for people
5:43
so as a resident I was Amelia Baptist I
5:48
went from the women's floor to seeing
5:51
people in ICU to even being an
5:54
orthopedic so it was a breadth of
5:56
experience and as I finished what
5:58
happened is I decided that I wanted to
6:00
be more than a chaplain I wanted to
6:03
educate I wanted to actually help others
6:05
to do the same job so after a year of
6:08
the residency I came back and was
6:11
accepted and it's been different because
6:12
I do continue to be a chaplain to
6:15
patients and staff but now a large part
6:17
of my responsibility to actually be with
6:19
the students as a certified educator
6:21
candidate we all have a different theory
6:23
for what our goals are for our students
6:25
what we focus on what we try to do is
6:28
help students become more self-aware so
6:30
that when they leave here regardless of
6:32
whatever Ministry setting they end up in
6:33
we believe that that self-awareness
6:35
leads to a more whole person and so my
6:38
hope for students is that they know more
6:40
about themselves and more about the
6:41
options that they have in life my hope
6:44
is that if they do choose clinical
6:46
ministry as their calling and as what
6:49
they would like to pursue that we would
6:51
be able to use some of our connections
6:53
to be able to help them find jobs that
6:56
they would Thrive at within clinical
6:58
settings and hospice settings we are
7:00
always a resource to any student that
7:03
comes through this program even after
7:05
they leave Prisma health is a teaching
7:07
hospital so not only do we have
7:09
chaplains who are residents but we have
7:11
medical residents and Social Work
7:12
residents psychology residents our goal
7:15
is to fit into the mission of Prisma
7:17
Health we want to be the spiritual care
7:20
Gatekeepers for Prisma health and we
7:23
want to continue to build our spiritual
7:26
CARE program so that the impact on the
7:29
overall organization is that we have a
7:31
spiritual care Department that meets the
7:34
needs of the people in our communities
