March 30th is National Doctors Day. Tanenbaum recognizes the essential role doctors play in preserving and improving the well-being of their patients. Tanenbaum’s curricula for medical students and curricula for residents support doctors to respectfully incorporate religion into the care they provide.
Patients come from diverse religious and cultural backgrounds, and their beliefs and practices intersect with their health needs in many ways. Physicians can provide higher-quality care by respectfully weaving nuanced religious and cultural perspectives into their practice.
Our curricula improve doctors’ ability to understand how religion and spirituality impact patients’ health, illness, and healing. Each module includes tools and case studies that enable physicians to discuss religion and spirituality openly and respectfully.
