The International Journal of Whole Person Care, published by McGill University's Programs in Whole Person Care, aims to serve as a scholarly forum for how we approach health care, with an emphasis on the existential/spiritual aspects of health research and practice. The journal is interested in scholarly work that addresses the intersection between personhood, health and suffering as well as approaches that facilitate congruence between patients, practitioners and their environments.
This Journal showcases the efforts of healthcare professionals and their patients, researchers and others from around the world working to treat the person holistically with dignity and compassion. It also encompasses the whole person of the practitioner based on the postulate that well professionals foster well-being in those they serve. This journal provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge.
