Area of Science:

  • Palliative Care
  • Spiritual Care
  • Healthcare Chaplaincy

Background:

  • Spiritual needs are integral to palliative care (PC).
  • Traditionally, spiritual care is provided via referral to hospital chaplains.
  • The specific role of chaplains within PC teams requires further delineation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the role of a palliative care (PC) chaplain embedded within an interdisciplinary PC team.
  • To differentiate the PC chaplain role from that of a traditional hospital chaplain.
  • To explore the potential for expanded clinical roles for PC chaplains.

Main Methods:

  • Descriptive study of an embedded PC chaplain role.
  • Analysis of the integration of spiritual care within the PC team.
  • Comparison of PC chaplain duties with traditional hospital chaplaincy.

Main Results:

  • The embedded PC chaplain role differs significantly from traditional hospital chaplaincy.
  • Integration allows for a potentially broader spiritual care experience for PC patients.
  • The study begins to define expanded clinical functions for PC chaplains.

Conclusions:

  • Embedding chaplains within PC teams enhances spiritual care delivery.
  • The PC chaplain role offers a more integrated and potentially expanded scope of practice.
  • Further research can delineate specific expanded clinical roles for palliative chaplains.
