Opportunities to advance your vocation in spiritual care and chaplaincy

Park Nicollet Methodist Hospital is not offering a summer 2020 internship.

Park Nicollet offers a full-time, year-long, three-unit residency that begins at the end of August and runs through the following August. This program is led by Shawn Mai, ACPE Certified Educator and CPE Program Manager.

He leads a program that cultivates an expanding awareness of self, others, and the Divine. His contemplative approach encourages authentic expression of emotional and affective experience, compassionate and generative listening and speaking, and bold engagement around the suffering and healing of others. The curriculum includes the use of the Enneagram for deeper personal and interpersonal awareness and relationship skills; spiritual, religious and cultural diversity education; professional and bioethics knowledge and skill development.

Methodist Hospital offers a variety of clinical setting assignments for chaplain residents including ICU, Cardiac Advance Care, Orthopedic, Neurology, Family Birth Center, and General Medical Surgical Floors. We have specialized residency positions in Palliative Care and Hospice. And, in combination with assignments in the hospital we offer an offsite placement at Struthers Parkinson’s Center.
