The Pastoral Visitor: A Member of the Health Care Team -- A Nurse's Perspective (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798716237445)

The Pastoral Visitor: A Member of the Health Care Team, A Nurse's Perspective has been presented at clergy seminars with high acclaim. This is an an easy read reference booklet to take along on hospital visitations. "I have always admired Clarice's ability to teach the intellectual knowledge of death and grief while simultaneously guiding each student to face his or her own emotional reactions to the subject. This writing also reflects that unique ability. It is not just a 'how to visit the patient' book, it also reaches into the psyche and heart of the Minister for understanding and expression." - Reverend John C. Atherton, Hot Springs, AK "I am a staff chaplain at a level one trauma hospital. We used this excellent book for a clergy training program. The book has much to commend it. It spotlights various pastoral types that find hospital visitation quite challenging and suggests helpful ways to provide a more appropriate ministry of presence to the sick and suffering. The perspective of the nurse educator who authored the book is full of insight for the local minister."- J. Hatfield "As a retired pastor, I know the feeling of being excluded from the health care team by the medical professionals, so it is gratifying and rewarding to have a nurse with teaching experience include me in. Even after 40 years of pastoral work there still were things I learned for the first time. The book is worthwhile. I'm glad I have it and read it." -D. Lindman
