The primary focus will be on the specialty of nursing called faith community nursing also known as parish nursing. Team taught by nursing and theology, the course is divided into 8 one week units which includes the theological foundation of Christian care giving, health and healing, and the meaning of pain and suffering. There is a strong emphasis on how to begin a congregational health ministry in a church and the nuts and bolts of faith community/parish nursing including roles and models of implementation. Faith Community Nursing is a nurse specialty that is recognized for the intentional care of the spirit, thus the student will be introduced to spiritual assessment and evidence based spiritual interventions.
