Spiritual Triage

""Like medical triage, which addresses patients' urgent needs in time of crises, these interventions are intended to help health-care workers keep their spirits alive until there is time for more complete rest and reflection."" --from the Introduction As a hospital chaplain, Nowicki is well aware of the daily joys, sadness, and stresses experienced by people in the health-care profession. She has thoughtfully created Spiritual Triage--over 50 brief yet substantial meditations based on Scripture, sacred writ, poetry, and selected quotations--to satisfy the spiritual hunger of busy healthcare workers. Meditation Topics Include: - Meditations to Encourage Self Care - Meditations for Encountering Pain and Encouraging Healing - Meditations to Facilitate Waiting - Meditations to Increase Awareness of Beauty - Meditations for Nurturing Silence - Meditations for Deepening Hope The book will appeal to a culturally and religiously diverse group. Karen A. Nowicki is chaplain at Crawford Long Hospital in Atlanta. She earned her MTS from Candler School of Theology at Emory University.
