SPIRITUAL CARE CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT
Between 2004-06, Canada's Hospice Palliative Care spiritual
care leaders commissioned
new Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE), implemented a national learning laboratory, and collaborated on
ground-breaking work to systematically define the practice, and
distill, document, and codify a baseline of knowledge about the field.
In 2009, Reverends Dan Cooper and Jan Temple-Jones were awarded the
Canadian Association of Pastoral Practice and Education (CAPPE/ACPEP)
national Award of Excellence for Pastoral Practice in Education
recognizing, in large part, their contributions to the Pallium Project
(Phase II) Spiritual Care Development Initiative. CAPPE Awards listing Legacies from the SCD Initiative include:

Palliative Care Inc/RQHR stakeholders in a concept mapping/business

24/7 TELE-HEALTH SERVICE ENHANCEMENT FOUNDATIONS
In
2005, the Pallium Project assigned Project Officer Jacquie Beasse to
work with program leaders of major urban palliative and end-of-life
service programs in western Canada. Together they established an
applied planning
framework for integrating Hospice Palliative Care tele-nursing
protocols within existing provincial tele-outreach delivery systems
(e.g., nurse line, healthline, healthlink). This work built on early
exemplars in the
lower BC mainland and Regina, Saskatchewan. In 2007, the B.C. team was
awarded a provincial Excellence in BC Healthcare Award in the
Collaborative Solutions category for their early development
leadership, including acknowledgement of their inter-provincial
collaboration. .pdf (30 KB)
PROVINCIAL/TERRITORIAL SERVICE FOUNDATION BUILDING
In 2004-06, the Pallium Project collaborated with the Canadian Hospice
Palliative Care Association (CHPCA) and provincial associations in
advancing focused dialogue, shared understanding, and foundational
action planning as informed by the 2002 Model to Guide Hospice
Palliative Care. The flagship initiative was a series of
provincial/territorial Putting Progress into Action (PPIA)
scoping and action planning workshops. Legacy service development tools and
group work summaries of the provincial/territorial workshops can be
