Fast Facts and Concepts #491: Use of Creative Arts in Caring for Patients with A Serious Illness

Research output: Contribution to journalReview articlepeer-review

Abstract

Clinicians should inquire if patients with serious illness are engaging in creative arts to explore the emotions and reflections elicited from living with a serious illness. They may even encourage some patients to engage in creative arts expressions regardless of their past artistic experience. Some larger health care institutions and hospice agencies have licensed creative arts therapists available to engage interested patients in more structured, therapeutic ways.
