ABOUT THE AUTHOR Ruth E. Williams RN,MEPD,MSN, a Wisconsin native, has been a parish nurse since 1992, and an instructor of nursing for sixteen years at Viterbo University and twelve years for Southwest Wisconsin Technical College. "The parish nurse," she says, "is the listener. Parish nurses do therapeutic listening. They listen with their ears as well as their whole being and their heart. Parish nurses listen to every word of their patients/clients in order to intervene for their need, to help them spiritually, physically,and emotionally." This was the subject for her master's thesis "Use of Active Listening as an Intervention by RNs in Hospitals, Nursing Homes, Community Health Agencies and Other Areas of Practice," 1991.
