5th International Student Nurses Conference

A unique opportunity to meet international colleagues and friends and learn and discuss about your professional role regarding spirituality and spiritual care.

Spiritual Care and Health Professions: Context and Practice

November 3 and 4, 2011
Moses & Aaron Church, Amsterdam
The Netherlands

Spiritual care forms an integral part of holistic health care delivered by nurses, midwives, social workers etc.

Although healthcare workers are expected to care for the spiritual dimension of the patient, many questions persist about what exactly is their professional role.

This conference will help students and other healthcare workers to find answers regarding their
professional role in spiritual care. The objectives of the conference are to explore:
• The opportunities of spiritual care in clinical practice
• The social  context of spiritual care
• The role of spirituality in illness and care
• The role of the professional in spiritual care
• Personal aspects of spiritual care
ParticipantsInternational health care students (nursing, midwifery, medical, social work e.g.) are
especially invited for this conference. We also welcome health care practitioners and
scholars.

2011 London Regional Conference

Resetting our compass: seeking God's direction in a confused ethical landscape

When: 2 April
Time: 10:00 - 16:15
Hosted by: Christian Medical Fellowship

The London and Southeast Regional Joint Conference for CNM and Allied Health Professions Christian Network (formerly CTN).

The ethical landscape in the NHS is changing fast, as new technologies and new social attitudes make it increasingly complex to know what is in the best interests of our patients and in keeping with God's values. From end of life to start of life, resource allocation and ethics in the staff room - how do we reflect God's life and values in our professional ethics?

This day conference aims to help Christians in the health professions re-orientate themselves ethically; to grapple with the current issues and with a Biblical basis for healthcare ethics across the spectrum.

With an emphasis on the allied health professions, nurses and midwives, this event is open to Christians in all the health professions, and is run in partnership between Christian Medical Fellowship (CMF) Allied Health Professions Christian Network (AHPCN) and Christian Nurses & Midwives (CNM).
