Narrative Health Program Description
The Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in Narrative Health will promote whole person, relationship-centered healthcare. Through discovery and exploration, we deliver progressive educational programs, advance innovative clinical models, built mutually beneficial partnerships, and provide opportunities for fulfilling careers. <br> <br>The proposed PBC in Narrative Health program is designed to prepare students with the skills and knowledge needed to understand the patient/client narrative as part of the healing process and to use writing and appreciative inquiry methodologies to achieve health and wellness. <br> <br>The program is a valuable and practical complement for several health care, medical, social services, ministerial/pastoral, care giving, and education practitioners and their clients/patients. It proves such individuals with the skills, knowledge, and framework needed to incorporate narrative health in their primary practices.
