Abstract:
:Forgiveness as a procedure has been gaining prominence. The objective of this article is to provide the basics of forgiveness as an intervention so primary care clinicians can facilitate its use. These clinicians include but are not limited to physicians, nurses, medical assistants, pharmacy professionals, physical therapists, social workers, psychologists, case managers, and clergy. This narrative explains the rationale for understanding forgiveness as a procedure and ways to explain it. To assist clinicians and patients in making informed decisions, samples of forgiveness research are included that describe its positive relationship to specific physical health situations. The article also describes an evidence-based forgiveness therapy, circumstances in which it is harmful to forgive oneself or others, describes the limitations of this article, and suggests future directions.
