A Brief History
The Art of Health and Healing program (previously Healing Through
The Arts) of Contra Costa Health Services (CCHS) has been officially
operational for approximately three years at several locations, including
CCRMC and several of the Health Centers. The program was developed
in an organic way, through the vision and determination of the program
committee. The committee is comprised of hospital employees and
volunteers who believe in the arts as a means to improve community
wellness, empower staff, and create a healing environment. We aim
to achieve these goals with each program that we offer.
Goal 1: To improve
community
wellness through
the arts and
creative programs.
Example 1 - Art N’ the Lobby (ANTL): Lead - a weekly
program aimed at discussing health and wellness issues
through a creative medium. It has expanded to serve staff,
patients, and community members at three health centers:
West County Health Center
Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) Lobby
Pittsburg Health Center

PATIENT PROGRAMS
Example 2: Expressive Arts Therapy (EXA):
1. Goal-To improve the mental well-being and perform crisis intervention for pa-
tients, families, staff & the greater community of CCHS through Art by the Bedside
work, as well as participate in both inpatient and outpatient group visits.
2. Common Interventions - Music, drawing, painting, poetry, storytelling, somatic
inquiry, movement and working with clay. Provide presence, empathic listening and
mirroring of patients.
3. Includes trainings for staff to reduce stress, improve overall well-being of the
providers, and build patient relationships to enhance the quality of services provided
to the community.
History: Operating at CCHS under the Rehabilitation Therapy Dept since Jan
2013, our EXA Program was founded as a partnership between the CA Institute
of Integral Studies (CIIS) and AHH, under Rehab Chair Karen Lloyd and Alan
Siegel. The program continues to develop and expand rapidly under the
management of the Dept. of Rehabilitation.
“I got to talk and listen to
music that I like with the EXA,
and that helped me to feel less
stressed. For a moment, it was
like I forgot I was in the
hospital.”

“After working with the EXA at my bedside
today, I feel a sense of relief, and feel more
trusting that all is going to be okay….it also
helped me appreciate all the inner strength I
have inside me.”
Case Example: Art By The Bedside “KP”
KP...suffered a series of strokes which ren-
dered her quite disoriented and unable to speak
intelligibly. She was unhappy with her
“confinement”, and with such difficulty express-
ing wants and needs, she made constant at-
tempts to escape the hospital....A lot of the staff
seemed at a loss around her… and a bit terrified.
I started my work with KP by finding out
what soothed her and by reflecting and validat-
ing any frustrations about her situation...We also
explored her tastes in music...which turned out
to be both soothing and invigorating for KP, who
apparently was quite social and went dancing “all
the time” before her hospitalization. As I
brought in songs….KP’s mood began to improve
and she began to open up to me about her
life. Her singing, as well as our “talks” began to
contain more real words; frustration around
communications with staff reduced, and with
that her behavior improved...I had the opportuni-
ty to work with KP for a period of many months,
and the privilege of witnessing her bloom again
into the strong, and very sweet social butterfly
that she truly is.
CCRMC Auxiliary provided financial support to provide IPads for the EXAs 2014
“I was feeling quite down and
isolated in the hospital. Working
with the EXA has helped me contact
my hope again. I feel...hopeful about
my situation and grateful that
someone understands me.”

HCWAC is an annual event started in 2006 at
CCHRC, where staff of CCHS can show their
creative side. Staff members have a chance to
display their artwork, perform music, or partake in
EXA activities in the company of their coworkers.
This unique event allows CCHS health workers to
share their talents with their peers, ‘see’ each
other beyond their healthcare roles, support AHH,
and enjoy the beauty of the Redwood Grove.
