The healthcare environment can be stressful for patients and service providers alike. Applying arts in healthcare settings can enrich the care environment for all.

Arts in health has been an active field for over 30 years but has never been more relevant in creating impactful patient and healthcare provider experiences than now. 

Join two leaders from The National Organization for Arts in Health to learn how the arts have made a difference in healthcare through four initiatives: improving equity and inclusion, reducing burnout, professionalizing the field, and research and education. This webinar will:

  • Describe case studies of a new Penn State Health hospital and show how a community committee guided a major art program to express equity and inclusion by highlighting local artists of color and diversity-related subjects. 
  • Discuss how medical centers are using the arts to manage burnout for clinical teams. 
  • Provide an overview of a newly-released arts in health core curriculum that offers both artists and health care administrators guidance on professionalizing the field as well as certification for those working in the field. 
  • Include a short review of current literature published on benefits of arts in health throughout the healthcare continuum. 

 

Learning Objectives

  • Explain the components of the arts in health field.
  • Apply the tenets of arts in health to challenges in healthcare and healthcare design.
  • Understand art’s role in the practice of diversity, equity and inclusion in healthcare settings.
  • Evaluate the role of a core curriculum and its value for certifying artists, art administrators, and arts consultants to work in the healthcare environment.
