Grief in a time of Pandemic: How to respond, How to Heal

The Oregon Health and Science University Center for Ethics in Health Care presents this virtual lecture series Compassion and Solidarity: Enhancing Ethical Medical Care in Oregon and Beyond

The series examines various health care practices through the shared lenses of compassion and solidarity. The goal of this lecture series is to illuminate complex medical topics including: ethics in the end-of-life context, justice and equity in the Pacific Northwest, how to improve health literacy and become a more compassionate communicator, why storytelling can help prevent burnout and make clinical practice more humane, and ways in which grief and trauma can be diminished through friendship and solidarity.

Scribbling in the Margins: Developing the Narrative Scribe

The University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine Presents the Examined Life Conference focusing on the links between medicine and the arts. 

Scribbling in the Margins: Developing the Narrative Scribe
Discussion Session
Presented by: Dr. Daena Goldsmith, Alexis Rehrmann, and Dr. Adam Hoverman 

How does our experience—and delivery—of care change when we understand listening as an act of co-creation?

This session will describe Narrative Scribe Training, a new curriculum created by the Northwest Narrative Medicine Collaborative, which builds on the narrative medicine practices of listening and witnessing.

Signal & Noise: Scribing in the Margins was piloted in January 2021 by 66 LC undergraduate participants from public health, social science, and humanities courses.  We will share a curriculum overview, data from the initial assessments, and open the space for a guided group discussion.

Funded by a four-year grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, and housed at the Center for Community and Global Health at Lewis & Clark College, Narrative Scribe Training is part of the college’s community-based Healing Social Suffering through Narrative program and will be offered annually through 2024.
