Fostering Spiritual Wellbeing in Emerging Paradigms of Care

Herausgeber: Kelly, Ewan; Swinton, John

Beschreibung

Explores the role of chaplaincy and the future of spiritual care delivery within contemporary healthcare systems. The focus throughout the book is on questioning current norms: shifting away from the current view of chaplaincy as a crisis intervention strategy, and toward a holistic, person-centred enhancement of quality of life and wellbeing.
