Critical Care : Delivering Spiritual Care in Healthcare Contexts, Paperback / softback Book

Critical Care : Delivering Spiritual Care in Healthcare Contexts Paperback / softback

Edited by Peter Sedgwick, Andrew Todd, Jonathan Pye

Paperback / softback

Description

Providing a bridge between research in healthcare and spirituality and practitioner perspectives, these essays on chaplaincy in healthcare continue dialogue around constructing, negotiating and researching spiritual care and discuss the critical issues in chaplaincy work, including assisted suicide and care in children's hospices.

Each section of the book is introduced by an academic theologian, giving the book a strong theoretical base, before serving healthcare chaplains offer their perspectives and experiences with material drawn from practice in a broad spectrum of healthcare contexts.

The integration of theory and practical application in these essays will be of interest to chaplains, healthcare practitioners, and students of theology and healthcare.
