        Every Christian health professional has a unique opportunity to improve their patients’ physical and spiritual health, but many feel frustrated by the challenge of integrating faith and practice within time constraints and legal obligations.

        However, the medical literature increasingly recognises the important link between spirituality and health and GMC guidelines approve discussion of faith issues with patients provided that it is done appropriately and sensitively.

        Christians are called to be ‘the salt of the earth’. Saline Solution is a course designed to help Christian healthcare professionals bring Christ and his good news into their work. It has helped hundreds become more comfortable and adept at practising medicine that addresses the needs of the whole person.

        Booking for this have closed. If you would like to find out more about Saline, please email events@cmf.org.uk
