Muslim Spiritual Care Provision in the NHS, a project of the Muslim Council of Britain in partnership with the Department of Health is tasked to raise awareness about Muslim healthcare chaplaincy, train aspiring chaplains to gain appropriate competence to be available to be recruited in NHS hospitals when opportunity arises. UK’s growing Muslim population is increasingly reflected in the staff and user numbers of the NHS hospitals as well. This also means that the NHS will need more Muslim chaplains to serve its patients and staff than ever before.
For the last 5 years Muslim Spiritual Care Provision in the NHS has been running an annual residential training course on healthcare chaplaincy providing broad and focused training on different aspects of healthcare chaplaincy. The success of the course is widely recognised and often the Chief Nursing Officer (CNO) or other senior NHS officials attend in the closing session and distribute the certificates.
Due to the success of our above training courses and increasing demand we are now pleased to offer a further six day training course to be held from 12th to 17th September 2012.
