2026-07-09 13:00 - 14:00 (America/New_York) | Zoom
Sharsheret’s Finding A New Normal: Helping Your Patients Manage Survivorship is a free, one-hour interactive training that addresses the complicated transition from active treatment to ‘survivorship,’ including the physical, psychosocial, and spiritual needs of patients. Participants will explore national survivorship guidelines, simple ways to enhance survivorship support, and the impact that support has on physical healing. Also included is an introduction to Sharsheret’s free psychosocial support for breast and ovarian cancer patients.

Participants will understand that the transition from cancer patient to survivor is a complicated process, and will learn to address the distinct needs of survivors.
Participants will recognize that emotional and spiritual healing is an important part of survivorship and often occurs in tandem with physical healing.
Participants will learn about the free survivorship support opportunities and resources available to their patients through Sharsheret and be introduced to additional survivorship resources in the oncology field.

Spirituality As An Essential Healing Tool in the Cancer Experience - A Training for Chaplains and Rabbis
2026-07-16 13:00 - 14:00 | Zoom
Chaplains and rabbis in all professional roles are invited to join Sharsheret for a free, one-hour training on the essential role spirituality plays in healing during and beyond cancer.
Studies have clearly established that spiritual well-being during a cancer experience leads to better quality of life, including lower levels of depression and less anxiety and overall distress. Yet not all patients understand the importance of spiritual well-being (whether one is religious or not), and many oncology professionals are uncomfortable broaching the topic. This interactive presentation will explore the integration of spiritual support into more familiar interventions. We will begin with an expanded definition of spiritualty and review of the significant impact of spiritual support. Then together we will explore the barriers that prevent spiritual support from the perspective of the patient, and will examine assessment tools, and discuss an array of cultural and spiritual beliefs surrounding illness and how those beliefs may impact diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship.
NAJC Board Certified Chaplains may claim one hour of continuing education in Methodology 1, Attending Education Events.
