Reviews for And Other Duties as Assigned: Walking the Path of a Chaplain Manager Inside and Outside the Walls

""And Other Duties as Assigned describes a model of spiritual care that every hospital should consider. These chaplain managers have forged an eminently practical path for others to follow in pursuing holistic, community-focused care that accounts for the essential dignity of every patient."" - Michael Skaggs, PhD, Director of Programs, Chaplaincy Innovation Lab ""I know of no healthcare system of any size with an overabundance of resources for assuring that all patients at all times feel oriented, supported, comforted, and accompanied through all the literal ins and outs of their medical experience. This model proposes practical solutions for strapped institutions and their stressed patients alike."" - Rev. Dr. Amy Greene, former Director of Spiritual Care, Cleveland Clinic, and retired ACPE Inc. Certified Educator ""This small group of chaplains is following clinical medical science out the door and into the complexity of psycho-spiritual determinants of health at community scale. In this book they have mapped the competencies, and how to learn them, to help a new generation of chaplains become more relevant both outside and inside the walls."" - Rev. Dr. Gary Gunderson, Professor, Faith and the Health of the Public, Wake Forest University
