Bridge Over Troubled Water - Harnessing the Power of Music, Art and the Humanities - A Schemel Forum World Affairs Luncheon

Friday, 25 October, 2024

Join us for a delicious luncheon and conversation!  The healthcare community has grown increasingly interested in the humanities and creative arts over the past decade. The humanities can help clinicians improve their skills in several areas, including observation, listening, and communication. Narrative medicine and reflective practice can also help clinicians learn to deal with uncertainty and process their emotions. In addition to the potential for
improving clinical outcomes, the creative arts can help reduce clinicians’ burnout risk. This discussion will address various ways music, art, and the humanities are utilized to bridge the gap between the science and art of healthcare.
