• Collaboration: Participates in rounds, family meetings, ethics discussions, and care planning; consults with physicians, nursing, social work, palliative care, ethics, and other interprofessional teams.

• Staff support: Supports staff experiencing grief, patient deaths, critical incidents, compassion fatigue, and moral distress; facilitates reflective practice and resilience-building conversations.

• Documentation and privacy: Documents psychospiritual assessments, interventions, care plans, and follow-up in the electronic health record; protects confidentiality and maintains professional boundaries.

• Education and quality: Educates staff, learners, and volunteers; contributes to policies, quality improvement initiatives, evidence-informed practice, and service activity reporting

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
