Healing with Heart is a one of a kind book written by a health care professional exclusively for health care professionals-whether they work at the bedside or support those who do. It uses everyday stories of life in hospitals, hospices, and medical offices to improve and deepen one’s interactions with coworkers, patients and their families. Healing With Heart is a truly transformational work of heart, spirit and common sense. Its selfless, warm, and personal tone confers a degree of dignity to everyone working in this very important field. Healing with Heart consists of short reflections covering subjects that can be appreciated especially by readers in the field. This gift-quality book is portable, accommodating readers who are on-the-go and want a quick, inspirational message before returning to work. This practical book awakens passion and provides health care professionals with a fresh perspective on work. Readers come away feeling that who they are and what they do is important, whatever their job may be. Author Martin Helldorfer is Senior Vice President, Mission for Exempla Healthcare. Healing with Heart embodies Martin’s unique experiences and perspective formed from years as a monk and training as a clinical psychologist. Hospitals use Healing with Heart in workshops and retreats on Leadership Effectiveness, Resilience, Avoiding Burnout, and Physician Development. They are starting their huddles and staff meetings with reflections. Hospitals are giving Healing with Heart as recognition, holiday, Nursing Week and Staffing Week gifts. Health care vendors who wish to connect more meaningfully with their customers are giving Healing with Heart rather than the usual tote bags and coffee mugs. Patients are giving Healing with Heart to their favorite health care professionals in gratitude for caring for their loved ones.
