Abstract:

In addition, recognizing the key role of Judaism in resident life, efforts are made to link major secular education programs to religious and traditional perspectives. "Death, Dying and Bereavement" and "Dignity, Privacy and Sexual Expression" are examples of these linkages in which multiple-part, staff training programs are inaugurated with an understanding of relevant Jewish ethics and laws pertaining to these topics.
