Expanding Access to Spiritual Care in Healthcare with Andrew Savitz

The Medical Alley Podcast (Presented by MentorMate)

Andrew Savitz joins the Medical Alley Podcast to share how his company, Spirituwell, is trying to bridge the gap between conventional medicine and spiritual well-being. He elaborates on the company's innovative practices, the challenges of navigating the evolving health landscape, and the importance of addressing spiritual health alongside physical health.
Savitz discusses the motivation behind starting Spirituwell and the key problems the company is trying to solve, including the lack of access to professional spiritual care, particularly in rural and underserved areas. Savitz explains how Spirituwell's telehealth model aims to expand access to spiritual care throughout the healthcare continuum, beyond the traditional hospital and hospice settings. He also touches on the important role chaplains can play in addressing existential distress and supporting the mental health of patients, as well as the challenges of integrating spiritual care into the mainstream healthcare landscape.
